  E       A       E          | E A | E |
I took my baby to see a show.

E               A              E         | E A | E |
She was telling me, she didn't want to go.

         E       A                E                 | E A | E | 
I said, "Come on girl, what's the matter with you?"

            E           A                E         | E A | E | 
But I could tell by the smell that she'd had a few.
[Pre-Chorus]
E                  C
Hold on girl don't get too tight,

A                            B             
 You started early and we've got all night.

            E             C
You've gotta take it easy, take it slow.

A                        B
 We don't want the whole world to know
[Chorus]
          E                G A
About the shape you're in 

A             B
Hey babe, the shape you're in.

          E                G A
About the shape you're in 

A             D            B
Hey girl, the shape you're in.
[Interlude] | E A | E | E A | E | [Verse]

My little girl really loves that wine.

E               A           E         | E A | E |
Wine will do it to her most everytime.

        E           A             E          | E A | E | 
If it's red or it's white or it's in between,

        E          A              E        | E A | E | 
She can drink more wine than I've ever seen.
[Pre-Chorus]
        E                  C
I said, hold on girl don't get too tight,

A                           B             
 We started early and we've got all night.

            E             C
You've gotta take it easy, take it slow.

A                        B
 We don't want the whole world to know
[Chorus]
          E                G A

Now I'm not tryin' to get heavy with you.

     E           A               E         | E A | E |
I'll mind my own business if you want me to.

      E        A             E                | E A | E | 
But I love you girl, I don't love no one else.

         E           A                E                 | E A | E | 
I'm just telling you baby 'cause I've been there myself.
