[Verse 1]
Bb When I met Bonnie Eb She had a good life F She had a good man Bb He had a good tan Bb We danced all evening Eb she would not leave me F She makes it perfect Bb Which made me crazy
[Chorus]
Eb wish you would have told me Bb Before our eyes locked F Before I twirled you Bb Around the floor Eb Before we drank from Bb The same whiskey bottle F Before I asked you Bb To be my only
[Verse 2]
Bb She is a gypsy queen Eb She runs on kerosene F But she don't say what she means Bb Like I do Bb Cause I’m just a hill billy Eb Little too old fashion F Little too romantic Bb Singing 'worn out shoes' (another of Joe's songs)
[Chorus]
Eb wish you would have told me Bb Before our eyes locked F Before I twirled you Bb Around the floor Eb Before we drank from Bb The same whiskey bottle F Before I asked you Bb To be my only
[Instrumental]

[Outro]
Bb The boat was rocking still Eb And we was a talking still F She walked on down the hill Bb To where I stayed Bb She said we could just be friends Eb And then away she went F I ain't see her again Bb To this day
