Alan Jackson, I Don't Even Know Your Name (1995)
Key: :[F] (w: Alan Jackson, Ron Jackson, Andy Loftin) (BPM: 116 / 39-A)
VERSE 1:
I was
[F] sitting in a roadhouse down on Highway 41
You were
[F] wiping off some ketchup on a table that was done
I
[A#] knew you didn't see me, I was in a corner booth
Of
[F] course you weren't my waitress, mine was missing her front tooth
I
[C] flagged you down for coffee, but I couldn't say a thing
But I'm in
[F open] love with you baby and I don't
[C] even know your
[F] name
[/G/G#/A]
CHORUS:
I'm in
[A#] love with you baby, I don't even know your name
I've
[F] never been too good at all those sexual games
So
[A#] maybe it's just better if we leave it this way
I'm in
[F open] love with you baby and I don't
[C] even know your
[F] name
BREAK: [over CHORUS]
VERSE 2:
I
[F] ordered straight tequila, a little courage in a shot
I
[F] asked you for a date and then I asked to tie the knot
I
[A#] got a little wasted, yeah, I went a little far
I
[F] finally got to hug you when you helped me to my car
The
[C] last thing I remember, I heard myself say
I'm in
[F open] love with you baby and I don't
[C] even know your
[F] name
[/G/G#/A]
REPEAT CHORUS:
BREAK: [over CHORUS]
VERSE 3:
The
[F] next thing I remember I was hearing wedding bells
[F] Standing by a woman in a long white lacy veil
I
[A#] raised the veil, she smiled at me, without her left front tooth
And I said
[F] "Where the hell am I, and just who the hell are you?"
She said
[C] "I was your waitress, and our last name's now the same."
'Cause I'm
[F open] married to you baby and I don't
[C] even know your
[F] name
[/G/G#/A]
OUTRO CHORUS:
I'm
[A#] married to a waitress, I don't even know her name
I've
[F] never been too good at all those sexual games
I
[A#] never thought my love life would quite turn out this way
I'm
[F open] married to a waitress and I don't
[C] even know her
[F] name
BREAK: [over CHORUS] [x3]
