[INTRO]

Eb
[VERSE ONE]
Eb
Her mama always told her to hold out for a good man
Eb
Sounded like a good plan all those years ago
Ab
A little house with a picket fence
Ab
Simple life with a couple kids
      Cm                                Bb
But tonight she's just looking for a shoulder

[CHORUS]
                 Ab
She was hoping for pink champagne
               Eb
But she'll settle for well whiskey
       Ab
Saw herself in a long white gown
        Eb
Not downtown gettin' tipsy

            Cm
And that one-night stand walking through the door
          Ab
Ain't the marrying kind, yeah that's for sure
  Ab                 Eb Ab
But she's gettin' older
                       Eb
And the bar's gettin' lower
 
[VERSE TWO]
    Eb
Her dreams are disappearing like smoke from his cigarette
Eb
She hasn't said "Yes," but she's thinking she might
       Ab
The closer it gets to closing time
Ab
A lonely heart will take a pick-up line
  Cm                             Bb
Anything to get her through the night

[CHORUS]
                            Ab
'Cause she was hoping for pink champagne
               Eb
But she'll settle for well whiskey
       Ab
Saw herself in a long white gown
        Eb
Not downtown gettin' tipsy

           Cm
And that drunk cowboy tellin' her lies
           Ab
Ain't the John Wayne she had in mind
Ab                   Eb  Ab
But she's gettin' older
                        Eb Ab
And the bar's gettin' lower

[INSTRUMENTAL] 
 
 Ab Eb
 
[OUTRO]
          Cm
She could thank you for the drink and walk away
Ab
Live to love another day
     Eb               Ab
But she's gettin' older
                        Cm   Bb  Ab
And the night's gettin' colder
                         Eb Ab
And the bar's gettin' lower
                       Eb
The bar's gettin' lower
