One drink too many (video)

C - G - C - G

C

1. Well, the table is set, the candles are lit

G

and there's the knock on the door.

G7

Boy! She's looking pretty all dressed up

C

now, who could have wished for more.

C7

Yeah, we wined and dined and all was fine,

F

knowing that she was game

G G7

but then I went and really spoiled it all

G G7

by filling up my glass again.

C G

For one drink too many took the smile right off of her face,

G7 C G C

one lousy drink too many took the girl right out of my place,

C7

Well, I tried to talk her out of going home,

F

but instead I fell flat on the floor.

G G7

+ And all I remember is a great big bang,

G G7

I guess she must have slammed the door.

C

2. Well, a couple of days and a hangover later,

G

she gave me one more chance,

G7

but only if I took her to "CHEZ MAXIM"

C

for a fancy dinner and dance.

C7

So we came to seek cheek to cheek

F

that moment we'd known before,

G G7

but then I went and did it all again

G G7

by filling up my glass once more.

C G

For one drink too many took the smile right off of her face,

G7 C G C

one lousy drink too many took the girl right out of my place,

C7

Well, I tried to talk her out of going home,

F

but instead I fell flat on the floor.

G G7 G G7

+ And all I remember is a 'cha-cha-cha' with the bouncers at the door.

+ repeat verse 2, lines 1 to 4 as instrumental + CHORUS

G G7 G G7

+ I guess I need to work it out again like keeping myself ashore.

C - G

+ One drink too many, one drink too many,

G7 - C

one drink too many, one drink too many.
