E E
So you lit her cigarette You're feelin' pretty good
A E
You think you've got a shot Most girls you probably would
A E
Yeah this is that kind of place But she ain't that kind of girl
F#m B
You're readin' it all wrong Let me tell you about her
CHORUS:
E B A B E
She only smokes when she drinks She only drinks now and then
E A B E
Now and then when she's tired Of bein' let down by men
G# C#m G# C#m F#
And you can give her a light But it's not what you think-in-ink
A F#m
Everybody knows she only drinks alone
A B E A B E A B
And she only smokes when she drinks
E E
Did you ask her to dance Let me guess she told you no
A E
Got to take her some place quiet And see how far that goes
A E
Aw don't take it all that hard When she smiles and turns you down
F#m B
For a complicated girl She ain't that hard to figure out
to chorus, lead, wo oh, to chorus
"yeah that's right"
