The tale of two frat brothers...a memoir.... 
 
D 
Remember that kid we beat up back in college 
A 
Me, you, and Thompson out in front of the frat 
E 
And that hippie went home crying to his parents 
A 
I can't believe you got us out of that 
D 
How sweet was that, God we were drunk 
A 
Drove around all night after it with that keg in the trunk 
E 
And when the cop pulled us over 
                            A 
You talked us out of that, too

The things that you say 
 
D 
I had to quit partying about a year and a half after you did 
A 
I don't regret it though, I think it was fun 
E 
Besides, it was the 70's, We were a couple of rich kids 
A 
And aside from that one hippie, we never really hurt anyone 
D 
Well, there's that other thing that I won't even say 
A 
As God as my witness I'll take that to my grave 
E 
Cause that was an accident 
                            A 
And you did what you had to do

D 
You never did tell me what happened with you and your brother down there in Florida 
A 
I heard they gave you a hell of a time 
E 
Everybody around here was afraid you might lose 
A 
I told them not to worry cause I knew you'd be fine 
D 
Had me out here to Camp David a few times over the years 
A 
I think the first time we were teenagers sneakin' beers 
E 
Look at you now you old son of a bitch 
A 
You got the run of this place 
 
Unbelievable
