[Verse]
E Becky was the beauty from south Alabama, C Her daddy had a heart like a nine pound hammer, D I think he even did a little time in the slammer, A What was I thinkin'
[Verse 2]
E She snuck out one night and met me by the front gate, C Her daddy came out a wavin' that twelve gauge, D we tore out of the drive, he peppered my tailgate, A What was I thinkin'
[Bridge]
B Oh I knew there'd be hell to pay, B But that crossed my mind a little too late,
[Chorus]
E D A Cause I was thinkin' 'bout a little white tank top, G E D A Sittin' right there in the middle by me, E D I was thinkin' 'bout a long kiss, A G Man I just gotta get, E D A Goin' where the night might lead, B D - D - A - A I know what I was feelin' E - C - D A - D A But, what was I thinkin'
[Verse 3]
E By the county line, the cop's were nippin' on our heels C Pulled off the road, kicked it in four-wheel D Shut off the lights, tore through a corn field A What was I thinkin'
[Verse 4]
E Out the the other side, she was hollerin' "faster" C Took a dirt road, had the radio blastin' D Hit the honky tonk for a little close dancin' A What was I thinkin'
[Bridge]
B Oh, I knew there'd be hell to pay B But, that crossed my mind a little too late
[Chorus]
E D A Cause I was thinkin' 'bout a little white tank top G E D A Sittin' right there in the middle by me E D I was thinkin' 'bout a long kiss A G Man I just gotta get E D A Goin' where the night might lead B D - D - A - A I know what I was feelin'
But, what was I thinkin'
(Lead chords F# - A - E - F# - C - D - E)
[Verse 5]
E When a mountain of a man with a 'Born To Kill' tattoo C Tried to cut in, I knocked out his front tooth D Ran outside, hood-slidin' like Bo Duke A What was I thinkin'
[Verse 6]
E Finally got her home at half past too late, C Her daddy, in a lawn chair, sittin' on the driveway D Put it in park, and he started my way A What was I thinkin'
[Bridge 2]
G Oh... what was I thinkin' C What was I thinkin'
D#9+/5+ D#9+/5+ D#9+/5+
Then she gave a come-and-get-me grin
D#9+/5+ D#9+/5+
And like a bullet, we were gone again

[Chorus]
E D A Cause I was thinkin' 'bout a little white tank top, G E D A Sittin' right there in the middle by me, E D I was thinkin' 'bout a long kiss, A G Man I just gotta get, E D A Goin' where the night might lead, B I know what I was feelin' D - D - A - A Yeah, I know what I was feelin' E - C - D A - D A But, what was I thinkin'
(Ending chords are E - C - D A - D A)
[Outro]
What was I thinkin'?
Oh, I know what I was feelin'.
But what was I thinkin'?
I guess I was thinkin' 'bout that tank top.
