This is my first tab attempt/submission...just trying to payback for all the good
help i've received...hopefully this is close
(btw I capo the second fret)
[C]She asked me to dance and then she [G]paused
she was a [C]neighborhood local at her [G]local bar
with [F]shoulder length brown [G]hair
and an accent [C]I found fairly [F]rare
[C]one part country [G]one part urban [C]thug...total fox
[C]I was out of my element[G]
[C]new to the neighborhood and clearly [G]lacking friends
just [F]adding to the [G]mess of white ball [C]caps
and red keg [F]cups
[C]dropping home [G]values and raising [C]rent
[C]After the pause things became c[G]onfusing
she asked "a[C]re you a real man or a [G]college student?"
I did not [F]know what to [G]say
I'd started [C]school that very [F]day
which is [C]nothing but a big [G]business I s[C]uppose
[C]Right then and there my heart did [G]drop
she [C]turned and walked away without a s[G]econd thought
I should have [F]listened to my d[G]ad
when he said "wor[C]k with your hands not your [F]head
and your [C]billfold will stay [G]full and you won't be paying [C]out debt"
So men the purpose of this song
is to go ahead and pass my father's wisdom on
go on and callous up them hands
learns some knots and turn a wrench
cause in four years there won't be any jobs left anyway
If I'd taken my old man's advice
I might be laid up in the bed beside that fox tonight
instead my mouth tastes like jello shooters
and i'm lurking here on this darn computer
well man that's all i've got ... good night
