Intro: F C D7 G C

Chorus:
 C
Well I must've had a ball last night
         F                            C
I can't recall what even started our fight
                         A
I must've drank away my blues
         D7                     G
'Cause I don't remember losin' you
        C
Well I must've done the town up right
           F                         D7
'Cause this mornin' my hat's just a little too tight
  F
There ain't no way of knowin'
    D7
But all the signs are showin'
  G                        C
I must've had a ball last night


     F                       C
Well I woke up this mornin' underneath my bed
     F                        C
And someone's in the kitchen sink
 F                       A
With cowboy boots on and nothin' else at all
 D7                                  G
Except my hat turned bacward on her head


Chorus
Instrumental (chorus)

Well my picture's on the table
Somebody tore it right in two
Well who'd do such a crazy thing
Someone took your suitcase and your little car
And I hate it 'cause the tires are new

Chorus
Instrumental (1st 1/2 of chorus)

Well I must've done the town up right
'Cause this mornin' my hat's just a little too tight
There ain't no way of knowin'
But all the signs are showin'
I must've had a ball last night

There ain't no way of knowin'
But all the signs are showin'
I must've had a ball last night
