[Verse 1]
D D/F# D/F# D Her mama always told her to hold out for a good man D/F# D D/F# D Sounded like a good plan all those years ago G A little house with a picket fence G Simple life with a couple kids Bm A But tonight she's just looking for a shoulder
[Chorus 1]
D/F# G She was hoping for pink champagne D But she'll settle for well whiskey G Saw herself in a long white gown D Not downtown gettin' tipsy Bm And that one-night stand walking through the door G D/F# G Ain't the marrying kind, yeah that's for sure D D/F# G But she's gettin' older D And the bar's gettin' lower
[Verse 2]
D D/F# D/F# D Her dreams are disappearing like smoke from his cigarette D/F# D D/F# D She hasn't said "Yes" but she's thinking she might G The closer it gets to closing time G A lonely heart will take a pick-up line Bm A Anything to get her through the night
[Chorus 2]
D/F# G She was hoping for pink champagne D But she'll settle for well whiskey G Saw herself in a long white gown D Not downtown gettin' tipsy Bm And that drunk cowboy tellin' her lies G D/F# G Ain't the John Wayne she had in mind D D/F# G But she's gettin' older D And the bar's gettin' lower
[Interlude]

[Chorus 3]
Bm She could thank you for the drink and walk away G Live to love another day D D/F# G But she's gettin' older Bm A G And the night's gettin' colder
And the bar's gettin' lower
