It's a Little Too Late
Key: AEasy(A) Well, early this mornin' it dawned on me ---
The kind of man she needed me to (E) be
She made a list and laid it there beside me - on the bed
Now (D) what I should a done keeps a-runnin' through my (E) head
(1-Well), (2-Oh!), (3-But),
I (A) shoulda done this and I shoulda done that
I shoulda been there and she'd never left
I shoulda been (E) hangin' onto ev'ry word she had to (A) say
But, it's a little too late, she's a little too gone
She's a little too right, I'm a little too wrong
Now would (E) be a good time to change, but it's a little too (A) late.
Last night I came home at a quarter to three ---
And to my surprise she wasn't mad at me
I thought she'd finally realized not to worry - I'd be home
And then I realized this mornin' she was gone.
2nd CHORUS
3rd CHORUS
Right now would be the time to change
But It's a little too late.

Numbers On The Jukebox
Key: ECapo 1EasyI (E) can't recall how many times she (A) said shed never leave
Or the (B7) times she swore the only one for (E) her was me
But the angel I was counting on has (A) all but disappeared
And the (B7) only trace of her that's left I (A) find each (B7) night in (E) there
Cause she's just (E) numbers on the jukebox (E7) that I (A) lean on
Theres a (E) little bit of her in every (B7) hurtin' song
I (E) used to hate the thought of her 'til her (E7) memory I for(A)got
Now, I (E) pay to bring her back
Cause she's just (B7) numbers on the (E) jukebox
(E) B-11 takes me back to the (A) first dance we shared
And (B7) A-14 reveals the truth she (E) never cared
One by one they're telling all the (A) stories of my past
And why the (B7) love I thought could never die lies (A) here be(B7)hind this (E) glass
Cause she's just (E) numbers on the jukebox (E7) that I (A) lean on
Theres a (E) little bit of her in every (B7) hurtin' song
I (E) used to hate the thought of her 'til her (E7) memory I for(A)got
Now, I (E) pay to bring her back
Cause she's just (B7) numbers on the (E) jukebox
I (E) used to hate the thought of her 'til her (E7) memory I for(A)got

I Don't Know Why I Do It
Key: EEasyHave you (E) ever looked down in the bottom of a coffee cup
And dis(A)covered that you got reason staying (E) up
(B) Right at the moment when
The caffine's kickin' (No Chord) in
So you (E) break down and give an old girlfriend a call
Then (A) after two hours of hearing her mindless (E) talk
You (B) remember what you dumped her for
And you wish you hadn't opened that (E) door
(Chorus)
I do it and I (E) don't know why
Hate to admit it but I think that I
Got something rollin' round (A) loose inside
That never was (E) screwed down tight
No I (B) don't know why I do it
But I do it all the (E) time
Have you (E) ever worked hard to line your pockets with dough
Then (A) let a little girl and love start burning a (E) hole
(B) Knowing that she'll break your heart
And max out your credit (E) cards
(Chorus)
(Steel Guitar Solo)
Have you (E) ever fallin' for a girl thinkin' she's the one
And you (A) get a funny feeling that your ramblin' days are (E) done
You can (B) tell she loves you so much
That you have to go and screw it (No Chord) up
(Chorus)
I (E) do it, I do it, I (No Chord) do it
I do it, and I (E) don't know why
I got a habit of wreckin' my life
Keep leaning left when I (A) want to go right
You know it isn't like I (E) haven't tried
I (B) don't know why I do it
But I do it all the (E) time
I (B) don't know why I do it
But I do it all the (E) time

Let's Talk About Our Love
Key: EEasyWell (E) I don't wanna hear no more
About how he broke your heart
Relivin' your ol' memories is tearin' me apart
I'd (A) just soon forget about the past
'Cause that's the one thing we can't (E) change
Let's (B7) stop this useless conversation
That's just lovin' time we're wastin'
Losin' any more would be a (E) shame
Let's talk about (A) you and me, let's talk about forever
(E) How it's gonna be and how there'll never
(B7) Come a day when we give up on (E) us
Let's talk about the (A) way we feel
Whenever we're together
And (E) how we never get enough
Let's talk about the (B7) good stuff
Let's talk about (E) our love
Now (E) we've been over everything he's ever done to you
It's time you figured out that we've got better things to do
(A) I don't mean to sound like I don't care
Girl you know you're the one I (E) love
You can (B7) tell me anything you want to
And everything you've ever been through
But when it comes to him I've heard en(E)ough
Let's talk about (A) you and me, let's talk about forever
(E) How it's gonna be and how there'll never
(B7) Come a day when we give up on (E) us
Let's talk about the (A) way we feel
Whenever we're together
And (E) how we never get enough
Let's talk about the (B7) good stuff

Let's talk about (E) our love

Friends In Low Places
Key: AEasy***Tune Guitar 1/2 Step Down To Match Recording***
Blame it (A) all on my roots
I (Bbdim7add9)showed up in boots
And (Bm) ruined your black tie affair
The (E) last one to know, the last one to show
I was the (A) last one you thought you'd see there
And I saw the surprise
And the (Bbdim7add9) fear in his eyes
When (Bm) I took his glass of champagne
(E) I toasted you said honey we may be through
But you'll never hear me complain
'Cause (A) I got friends in low places
Where the whiskey drowns and the beer chases
My (Bm) blues away
And I'll (E) be okay
(A) I'm not big on social graces
I think I'll step on out to the oasis
'Cause (Bm) I've got friends (E) in low pl(A)aces
Well I (A) guess I was wrong
I (Bbdim7add9) just don't belong
But (Bm) hey, I've been there before
Every(E)thing's all right, I'll just say goodnight
& I'll (A) show myself to the door
Hey I didn't mean to (Bbdim7add9) cause a big scene
Just (Bm) give me an hour and then
(E) I'll be as high as that ivory tower
That you're livin' in
'Cause (A) I got friends in low places
Where the whiskey drowns and the beer chases
My (Bm) blues away
And I'll (E) be okay
(A) I'm not big on social graces
I think I'll step on out to the (No Chord) oasis
'Cause (Bm) I've got friends (E) in low pl(A)aces
Hey, (Bm) I've got friends (E) in low pl(A)aces

Too Cold At Home
Key: DEasyTOO COLD AT HOME
Recorded by Mark Chestnut
Words and music by Bobby Lamoyne Harden
D Well, it sure feels good to come in here
G And just pull up a seat
A frosty mug of a D cool one A7
Helps to beat the heat
D These old dog days of summer
Lord, I'll G be glad when they're gone
It's too hot to fish, D too hot for golf A7
And TOO COLD AT D HOME.
Well, that baseball game on TeeVee
Takes me back to when I was a kid
We proudly wore those uniforms
Just like the Dodgers did
Yea!, we won a few and and we lost a few
And for me it still goes on
Too hot to fish, and too hot for golf
And TOO COLD AT HOME.
Well, I G only planned on one or two
D I might stay for three
If that G good-lookin' thing in the corner
Keeps A7 smilin' back at me
It's so D easy not to care
G 'Bout what's right or what's wrong
It's too hot to fish, D too hot for golf A7
And TOO COLD AT D HOME.
It's G too hot to fish, D too hot for golf A7
And TOO COLD AT D HOME.

(D)Takes more than luck to really mess up
(G) It don't just hapen this (D) way
It (G) took sacrifice and (D) all my exwives

GSo we did not draw an easy breathe
Guntil he laid that colt on the table
GHe hung his head till the cops showed up

GTold him "Don't play dumb with us, son"
G"Know damn well what the charge is."
