Verse 1 There ain't no place to dance in town
                 G
        like the VFW when the sun goes down
                 A                              G              D     A
        All the good looking ladies come from miles around to meet
                 D
        Fred saw Betty Lou Baker for the fourteenth time
            G
        he said "I'm gonna tell her how I feel tonight"
                A                                 G                     D   A
        But he didn't know what hit him when he couldn't even move or speak

                             D
Chorus  Well it starts with "L" and it ends with "E"
                                G
        There's a couple short letters stuck in between
                          D                                             A
        And it ain't too long but it always seems to get him all choked up
                             D
        Yeah it starts with "L" and it ends with "E"
                     G                    Bm
        One tough syllable and he's home free
                   D                         A
        It's only four letters go, get her ain't nothin' better than love

Verse 2 Now Betty Lou's that girl with the long blonde hair
         G
        Sittin' by herself in the cane-back chair
        A                     G                       D   A
        Anybody lookin' would think nobody cared but then
                 D
        Fred is frettin' over yonder sittin' in the corner
         G
        worrying wondering if he's ever gonna
        A                  G               D        A
        Get the nerve, to use that word again

                             D
Chorus  Well it starts with "L" and it ends with "E"
                                G

                          D                                             A
        And it ain't too long but it always seems to get him all choked up
                             D

                     G                    Bm

Verse 3 Well Fred finally got around and found Betty Lou,
                        A

            B                        A                         E  B
        He didn't have a clue, what Betty Lou would do in his mind
                 E
        And then Betty Lou stood up and shook her head
                 A
        for the longest moment that room went dead
                    B          A                  E     B
        Until she said "Fred, Honey it's about time"

        And it ain't too long but it always seems to get him all choked up

                     A                    C#m

                   E                         B                         E  A
