Must've Had a Ball
Alan Jackson
transcribed by Slim Chance
 
Intro: F C A D7 G C

Chorus:
C
Well I musta had a ball last night
         F                                          C
I can't recall what even started our fight
                                        A
I musta drank away my blues
               D7                           G
'Cause I don't remember losin' you
            C
Well I musta 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'
       CΚΚΚΚΚΚΚΚΚΚΚΚΚΚΚΚΚΚΚΚΚΚΚΚA
But all the signs are showin'
D7ΚΚΚΚΚΚΚΚΚΚΚΚΚΚΚΚΚΚΚΚG           C
I musta 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                           C                A
With cowboy boots on and nothin' else at all
D7                                              G
'Cept my hat turned backward 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 pattern)

Well I musta 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 musta had a ball last night

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