Well Hey, hey, Mr. Policeman

Bet I can drive faster than you can
Come on Hoss, let’s have some fun
Go on shoot me With your radar gun
You look bored and I sure am
Catch me if you can
Hey, hey, Mr. Policeman

I got a ’75 Firebird Trans-Am
With a 455 up under the hood
My and my brother got it running good
Wake up behind them old Ray Bans
Catch me if you can

Go on turn on your blue lights
You know you want to I just flew by
I can see you peeling out
c G
How’s my dust taste in your mouth
Come on Smokey it’s time to race
Let’s have us a high-speed chase
Solo- C G C G D C G D C Bb F G F
Well Hey, hey, Mr. Policeman

Chopper in the air and a couple of SWAT vans
That’s no fair now, blocking the road
Where am I supposed to go
Time to use my backup plan
Catch me if you can
Hey, hey, Mr. Policeman

I bet I can run faster than you can
your big pot belly and your cowboy boots
A hundred bucks says you won’t shoot
I know these woods like the back of my hand
Catch me if you can

Go on turn on your spotlight (SO SHINY)
I got running shoes and I’m younger than you and I got all night
There’s no way you’re keeping up with me
So go on back to Krispy Kreme
If you wanna quit, I understand
Catch me if you can
Hey, hey, Mr. Policeman
I said hey, hey, Mr. Policeman

I’m in the jailhouse now
I’m in the jailhouse now
They told me once or twice

Son, please respect my authority
I’m in the jailhouse now

Somebody’s gonna get dressed up and take you out for Valentine’s,
Get lots of [D/F#]jealous looks thinking that’s one lucky guy,
And I hope that’s me, I hope that’s me.

And you, you keep on wondering who, is gonna love you like I already
do, and I keep [G/B]wondering when you’ll see, that eventually.

Somebody’s gotta throw on a coat
when your fever hits a hundred and two,
go down and pick your [D/F#]prescr i ption up,
and come home and fix you soup,
And I hope that’s me, I hope that’s me.

Somebody’s gonna buy a ring,
Somebody’s gonna make you cry,
Somebody’s gonna [D/F#]lift that veil,
And get to look into your eyes,
And I hope that’s me, I hope that’s me.

Cause you, you keep on wondering who, is gonna love you like I already
do, and I keep [G/B]wondering when you’ll see, maybe eventually.

[D/F#]

Old man on a front porch swing,
Looking back on his long life,
Glass of ice tea [D/F#]in his hand,
Other arm around his wife.

And I hope that’s you, I hope that’s me.
I hope that’s you, and I hope that’s me.
I hope that’s you, and I hope that’s me.
I hope that’s you, and I hope that’s me.
I hope that’s me.

but no one will ever know the difference if you play it this way.

Intro: E A E B E G A C E B E

I filled up two shopping carts late last night
The one was full of fishing gear, the other Miller Lite
The checkout-lady laughed and said “You think you got enough”
And I said “Yeah, You’re probably right”, and filled another two carts up

Gonna catch all the fish
Gonna drink all the beer
Gonna hanker down
We’re staying here
Might take all day
Might take all year
Till we catch all the fish
Till we drink all the beer

So I picked up the boys at dawn and we were on our way
It hadn’t been ten minutes before Jimmy’s cellphone rang
His old lady asked him how long we’d be on the lake
And I said “You tell her, We’re staying here however long it takes”

Gonna catch all the fish
Gonna drink all the beer
Better warn her now
Better make it clear
Might take all day
Might take all year
Till we catch all the fish
Till we drink all the beer

Just as long as there’s a can left in that cooler
Just as long as there’s a bass left in that lake
That just means that we still got some work to do here
Just as long as there’s still gas left in them tanks

E A E B E G A C E B E 3x

As long as there’s a can left in that cooler
As long as there’s a bass left in that lake
That just means that we still got some work to do here
As long as there’s still gas left in that tank

Well, we caught all the fish
And we drank all the beer
And we ran outta gas
Now we’re stuck out here
With a bunch of empty cans
And worthless fishing gear
Cause we drank all the fish
And we caught all the beer
Well, I mean we caught all the fish
And drank all the beer

Chorus:
Hold me in your arms just see how it feels
Don’t make me wait forever ju[A-Ab-G]st because you know I will
Don’t leave me hangin’, wishin’, waitin’, hopin’ that you’ll call
Darlin’ hold me in your arms and let me fall

You’ve got reservations, well darlin’ so do I
But mine are at a restaurant six-thirty Friday night
I swear you won’t regret it if you agree to go
Just do me one small favor before you tell me no

When you go out shopping you try on brand new clothes
To see if something fits or not there’s just one way to know
Why’s it any different when someone asks you out
You might as well just try me on before you turn me down

Yeah darlin’ hold me in your arms and let me fall

She”s 98 pounds[D/F#] workin down at the Dairy Queen [G/D]
With an Olgivie home perm and braces
And he”s long-haired no [D/F#]job and just 19 [G/D]
They got a baby on the way
And they”re off to the races in

Love [D/F#]
Look at em [G/D]go
Now what in the world could go wrong
Don”t tell them the odd[D/F#]s
It”s Best they don'’t know
If love was a plane nobody”d get on

At the Ivy at [D/F#]lunchtime in Beverly hills [G/D]
The paparazzi are gathered outside
Cause an actor and an [D/F#]actress are having lunch [G/D]
And according to Extra and Entertainment Tonight They”re in

Love [D/F#]
Look at em [G/D]go
Now what in the world could go wrong
Don”t tell them the odds[D/F#]
It”s best they don'[C/E]’t know
If love was a plane nobody”d get on

Imagine now the [B/Eb]pilots voice
On the [G/D]intercom right before
We leave the ground [G/B]
Saying folks thanks for flying with us
But there”s a[G/B] 6 in 10 chance[D/A] we”re goin dow[G/B]n

[D/F#] [G/D] [D/F#]
But that”s the strangest[D/F#] thing about this emotion [G/D]
Even knowing our chances are small
G D/F# Em c/G
We line up at the gate with our tikets
Thinking somehow we”re different I mean after all we”re in

Love [D/F#]
Look at us [G/D]go
Now what in the world could go wrong
To hell with the odd[D/F#]s we”d rather not know
If love was as plane nobody”d get on
Yea if love was a plane nobody”d get on

[Verse 1]
If I had you at my mercy, there’s no telling what I’d do
But I’d sit and make you listen for an hour, maybe two
And then you’d know I need you, every day that rolls around
And your feet would walk on velvet with gold all over the ground

[Verse 2]
Your trails would be downhill, a soft breeze at your back
a sky full of diamonds, and your nights would not be black
yes, you would really love it, and if you’re ever down
I’d give you rows of roses, and gold all over the ground

I’d pick you up and carry you ‘cross every stream I see
and I’d bundle you in kindness until you cling to me
we’d sit beneath strong branches, my arms would twine around
and I’d turn your green to emerald, and give you gold all over the ground

I’d pick you up and carry you ‘cross every stream I see
and I’d bundle you in kindness until you cling to me
we’d sit beneath strong branches, my arms would twine around
I’d turn your green to emerald, and your sky is full of diamonds
and give you gold all over the ground

I think these chord shapes are the easiest way to play this song, so I’ve
can change chords quickly.

INTRO

Oh lighten up, where’s your sense of humor?
They’re just tiny little rumors
That I started ‘cause I’m lookin’ out for [Bb(2)]you.
Oh settle down, I’m just a little jealous,
And I’m sure those other fellas
Never once believed the lies I told were [Bb(2)]true.

Like the time I told that cowboy that you used to be a man,
And the doctor you were datin’ that you hide your wedding band.
Even if I am responsible for [Bb(2)]scaring them away,
You really ought to thank me, I was doin’ you a favour,
‘Cause it never woulda worked out anyway.

Oh can’t you see, the reason that I’m doin’
All the crazy things I’m doin’,
Is because I really care about you [Bb(2)]girl.
And I’ll admit I go a little farther
Than I know I probably oughta,
But it’s all because I need you in my [Bb(2)]world.

Like the time I told that lawyer that you spent a year in jail,
And the salesman you were seein’ you hang out at cheap motels.
Even if I am responsible for [Bb(2)]scaring them away,
You really ought to thank me, I was doin’ you a favour,
‘Cause it never woulda worked out anyway.

INSTRUMENTAL[Bb(2)]

I can’t stand the thought of you with anybody else,
I know I’ve gone overboard but I can’t help myself.

Like the time I told that dentist you had seven little kids,
And you doubled as a dancer at the strip joint on the ridge.
Even if I am responsible for [Bb(2)]scaring him away,
You really ought to thank me, I was doin’ you a favour,
‘Cause it never woulda worked out anyway.
It’s all because I love you and I can’t stop thinkin’ of you,
And it never woulda worked out anyway.

After how he treated you he cheated you and lied
I guess you could go curl up into a ball and cry
Or you could turn a heartache into sweet revenge at last
D ‘ C# — C — B ‘ G
Cause two can cheat at this game baby, pay backs a blast

Get even with him, with me
You been done wrong for so long but now you’re free
Don’t get angry, don’t get filled with jealousy
Get even with him, with me

If I know that jackass well there’s one thing he can’t stand
He wasn’t faithful in the least but, find another man
He’s going to go crazy thinking about how much he lost
D ‘ C# — C– B ‘ G
Your lips, your kiss, your touch, come on
Let’s really ps him off!

Get even with him, with me
You been done wrong for so long but now you’re free
Don’t get angry, don’t get filled with jealousy
Get even with him, with me

Get even with him, with me
You been done wrong for so long but now you’re free
Don’t get angry, don’t get filled with jealousy
Get even with him, with me
