Key G

[Intro]
C D E7 A7 D G

[Verse]
G
Some people have a way of tellin'
A A7
Things that couldn't be true
D7
I guess I'm one of those jokers
G
Because I've told a few
G
Like the guy that goes out fishin'
A A7
You can always hear him say
A D E7
I gotta few bites but my luck wasn't right
A D G
And the big one got away

[Verse]
C G
Now I like to go out fishin'
G
For the different kind of fish you see
A D7
Collectin' beautiful women that's the kind of sport for me
G
But I lost my blue ribbon baby
A A7
like the fisherman I'm gonna say
C
I had her right in my lap
D7 E7
But the line must have snapped
A D G
And the big one got away

[Solo]
C7 C7 G G A A7 D7 D7
G G A7
Do do do do do do do do do do do do do
A7 E7 A7 D7 G

[Verse]
G
I've got away with women
A A7
I know the right bait to toss
D7
I know where to cast my lure for sure
G
And get my line across
G
Well I really snagged a rare one

[Verse]
A A7
I wish you could have seen her play
