Fountains of Wayne – Girl I Cant Forget (Ukulele)

         A                                                 
Well she picked me up in a German car

        C#m
and she took me out to an Irish bar

        Bm
where I drank some beer in a plastic cup

       E		D
'til I had some trouble standing up

	     A
And then she drove downtown to a strobe-lit space

     	      C#m
where all the guys wore chains and the thumping bass

    	 Bm
was so intense I could barely feel my face

      E
and I think I asked her back to my place

    F#m	            Bm7
But that's all I recall

           E 		  A
and when I woke up in the hall

       F#m             Bm7
I was alone and softly groaning

       E                 Fdim
and I lost my keys and I lost my phone

       F#m          Bm7
and I wonder what I did or said

     E               A
that I might soon regret

         F#m		Bm7
It was a night I can't remember

	 E                A
with the girl I can't forget   

            A
Well I was reeling, watching the ceiling spin

          C#m
the next evening when my friends walked in

            Bm
and when I asked them if they knew where I'd been

            E                          D
they didn't speak at first, they only grinned

            A                     
You see I'm not the type to get in fights

          C#m 
but that might not have been the case last night

              Bm
because they heard that I had a word or two

       E 
with a man who asked, "Is she with you?"

         F#m		    Bm7
And if I took it the wrong way

               E              A
I guess that's not for me to say

          F#m               Bm7
though it seems I may have slipped up

        E                Fdim
when I offered him some grooming tips

        F#m               Bm7
But at least that helps explain

             E             A
the cuts and bruises on my head

         F#m           Bm7
from the night I can't remember

         E            A
with the girl I can't forget

                               F#m
And it's all coming back now   

                               Bm
Don't know how to react now    

				E
Guess I'll let it go

           A
Well I was back at work at 9:15

       C#m
when a message popped up on my screen

         Bm
It said, "Pick me up at 8:45

    E
and we can give it one more try"

    F#m               Bm7
And now that I'm with her

                E              A
the whole thing seems a bit absurd

           F#m             Bm7
though she never fails to tell the tale

       E                Fdim
of the time she had to post my bail

        F#m         Bm7
And for giving me a second chance

        E           A
I'm forever in her debt

          F#m              Bm7
since the night I can't remember

          E                        D A D A D A Bm A A6
she's the girl I won't ever forget
