CAPO 2ND Fret
                          G
She said I've seen you in here before
    A                    D
I said I've been here a time or two
                          G
She said hello my name is Bobby Jo,
    A                    D
meet my twin sister Betty Lou,
                              G
and we're both feeling kinda wild tonight,
   A                    D   
you're the only cowboy in this place,
                       G
so if you're up for a rodeo,
                       A
we'll put a big Texas smile on your face
 (No Chord)
I said girls,  

                     G
I ain't as good as I once was,
A                D    
I've got a few years on me now,
                G                A
but there was a time, back in my prime 
                      D
when I could really lay it down,
                      G
so if you want some love tonight
A                 D
I might have just enough
                      G
I ain't as good as I once was, but
 A                   D
I'm as good once as I ever was

                          G
I still hang out with my best friend Dave
   A                         D
I've known him since we were kids in school
                       G
last night, he had a few shots, 
         A                        D
got in a tight spot, hustlin a game of pool,
                  G
with a couple of red-neck boys, 
              A            D
one great big, bad biker-man,
                     G
I heard David yell across the room,
                      A
hey buddy how bout a helpin hand,
 (No Chord)
I said Da-ave

G
I ain't as good as I once was,
A                D    
my how the years have flown
                G                A
but there was a time, back in my prime 
                      D
when I could really hold my own,
                      G
so if you wanna fight tonight
A                 D
guess those boys don't look all that tough
                      G
I ain't as good as I once was, but
 A                   D
I'm as good once as I ever was

             C
I used to be hell on wheels
G                  D
back when I was a younger ma-an
                    G
now my body says now you can't do this boy,
                   A
but my pride says Oh yes you ca-an


                      G
I ain't as good as I once was,
A                D    
that's just the cold hard truth
                         G                
but I still throw a few back 
          A                           D
talk a little smack, when I'm feelin bulletproof
                      G
so don't double dog dare me now
A                 D
cause I'd have to call yo bluff
                      G
I ain't as good as I once was, but
 A                   D
I'm as good once as I ever was
                      G
may not be good as I once was 
           A              D
but I'm as good once as I ever was.
