[D]Once I had a [D7]little girl [G]as pretty as I have [D]known
[D]Lord you know I loved her so and then she [E]left me all [A]alone
[G]And I swore here on this [D]barstool
I'd never make that [D7]mistake [G]again
Well you ain't so fine but [D]you're all mine
And I'll [A]love you till the [D]end
So [G]darling don't you [D]worry cause they
[G]Say that love is [D]blind
[G]Lust has eyes like an [D]eagle
It's gonna [E]drive me out of my [A]mind
Though my [G]eyes sometimes [D]wander
It doesn't mean that I'm un[G]true
You're not the best but you're the [D]best that [A]I can [D]do
[D] [G] [D] [A] [D] [G] [D]
[D]You know a pretty girl [D7]she'll leave you
[G]Leave you to drown in your own [D]tears
[D]You know an ugly girl she'll leave you too
But [E]then again who really [A]cares
And then my [G]eyes of blue they [D]cannot be true
They'll have to stay here in my [G]dreams
I guess that's why old [D]Hugh Hefner invented [A]Playboy maga[D]zine
[D]So sit down here [D7]beside me girl
And I will [G]tell you what we will [D]do
We're gonna twist them lids and hope
Our kids look [E]more like me than [A]you
And when that [G]bottle is finally [D]empty
We're gonna tumble across the [G]floor
And I'm gonna pray my imagin[D]ation is
Gonna [A]pull me through once [D]more
So [G]darling don't you [D]worry cause they
[G]Say that love is [D]blind
[G]Lust has eyes like an [D]eagle
It's gonna [E]drive me out of my [A]mind
Though my [G]eyes sometimes [D]wander
It doesn't mean that I'm u[G]ntrue
You're not the best but you're the [D]best that [A]I can [D]do[D7]
You're not the [G]best but you're the [D]best that [A]I can [D]do
[G] [D] [A] [D] [G] [D] [A] [D]
