Key: :[F] (w: Fred Knobloch, Delbert McClinton) (BPM: 160)

INTRO: [F]

VERSE 1:
I [F] met her in a night club over on the lower east [Bb] side
I was [C] workin' with my head down tryin' to keep the groove a-[F]-live
She [F] looked like a bunny out of Playboy maga-[Bb]-zine
I just [C] had to meet her; she was the cutest thing I'd ever [F] seen

VERSE 2:
She had [F] high heel boots, blonde hair and big blue [Bb] eyes
The way she was [C] movin' to the music had me hypno-[F]-tized
I [F] ran up to her, said, "Baby, what's your [Bb] name?"
I [C] should've know better; now I've only got myself to [F] blame

CHORUS:
[F] Why, why, why [Bb] me?
[C] Fallin' like this is the very last thing I [F] need
If I [F] had any sense, you know, I'd turn right around and [Bb] leave
I said [F] why, [C] why, why [F] me?

BREAK: [over VERSE]

VERSE 2:
[F] Started drinkin' champagne, makin' every joint in [Bb] town
[C] Bam A hundred dollars every time I turned a-[F]-round
[F] 'bout the time my money ran out, you know, my honey was [Bb] gone
And I was [C] cryin' out loud to myself, as I was walkin' [F] home

REPEAT CHORUS:
