1. She tried to hide it by the faded denim clothes she wore,

A            D

but I knew she'd never been inside a bar before.

G                             C               G

And I felt like a peasant who’d just had met a queen,

      G                               - D             G

and she knew I saw right through her tight fitting jeans.

       G                C              G

2. I asked her, “What's a woman like you doing here ?

A              D

I see you're used to champagne, but I'll buy you a beer.”

G                              C                   G

She said, “You've got me figured out, but I'm not what I seem,

            G                              - D            G

and for a dance I'll tell you about these tight fitting jeans.”

D7                       G

She said, “I married money, I'm used to wearing pearls,

C                       G       A7                  D - D7

but I've always dreamed of being  just a good ol' boy's girl.

G                                   C                 G

So tonight I left those crystal candle lights to live a dream,

              G                        - D             G

and, partner, there's a tiger in these tight fitting jeans.

3. We danced every dance and, Lord, the beer that we went through,

A                   D

I'm satisfied I did my best to make her dream come true.

G                      C                  G

As she played out her fantasy before my eyes it seemed,

        G                          - D            G

a cowgirl came alive inside those tight fitting jeans.

G                          C               G

4. In my mind she's still a lady, that's all I'm gonna say,

A              D

I knew that I'd been broken by the time we parted ways.

G                             C                    G

And I know I held more woman than most eyes have ever seen,

             G                    - D            G

that night I knew a lady wearing tight fitting jeans.

  D7                          G

Well, now she's back in her world and I'm still stuck in mine,

C         G         A          D - D7

but I know she'll always remember the time.

G                 C              G

A cowboy once had a millionaire's dream,

              G                     - D            G

and, Lord, I loved that lady wearing tight fitting jeans.
