[Intro] C G F F x6 [Verse]
       C                       G           F   F
It was only last June when her old man ran away

    C                            G                     F  F
She couldn't stop cryin' cuz she knew he was gone to stay

C                    G             F
Ten thirty five on a lonely Friday night

        C                    G                       F    F
She was standin' by the bar, woo!  she was lookin' alright

  C                          G                       F
I asked her if she wanted to dance and she said that all she wanted

                             C         G                  F   F
was a good man and wanted to know if I thought I was qualified
[Chorus]
           C          G          F     F
And I said baby don't waste your time

C             G       F     F
I know what's on your mind

F             Fm         Em        D
I may be qualified for a one night stand

            Fm             G     N.C.
But I could never take the place of your man
[Instrumental] C G F x2 [Verse]
   C                       G                     F         F
It hurt me so bad when she told me with tears in her eyes

       C                    G                 F    F
He was all she ever had and now she wanted to die

   C                           G               F    F
He left her with a baby and another one on the way

    C                            G                   F      F
She couldn't stop cryin' cuz she knew he was gone to stay

    C                     G
She ask me if we could be friends and I said

   F
Oh honey, baby that's a dead end, you know

  C             G                F      F
I know that you wouldn't be satisfied
[Chorus]
           C          G          F     F
And I said baby don't waste your time

C             G       F     F
I know what's on your mind

F                    Fm           Em        D
you wouldn't be satisfied, with a one night stand

            Fm             G     N.C
and I could never take the place of your man

 C    G              F       F
        the place of your man
