D      G7        D 
In a little Dance Hall just outside of Dallas 
                    G7             A7 
I dropped my drink when she came walking by 
   D      G7 
By the time I got a grip 
      D    G 
She slipped through my fingertips 
          E7           A7 
and left me with my big mouth open wide..

 (nc)            D   
I should've asked her faster 
        G7 
But I waited too long 
    A7 
In a red hot minute 
         D 
Like a flash she was gone 
A7         D 
I didn't get her number 
       G7 
I never got her name 
  A7 
A natural disaster 
          D 
I should've asked her faster. 
 
Verse 2: (same as Verse 1) 
 
She was talking to a cowboy in the corner 
My one last chance to ask her on the floor 
And just when I got the nerve 
I got just what I deserved 
As I watched him waltzin her right out the door 
 
Bridge 
 G7 
Well there she goes, I just missed 
 D 
Don't take no rocket scientist 
        G7 
To figure out, when I go home 
    A 
I'll be going there all alone.
