Get To Know Ya chords

[Intro]
G
 
 
[Verse 1]
G
Well I clocked out about a quarter after I had mostly checked out mentally
G
Spent the bulk of the daylight dreaming in delight of finally kicking up my feet
     C
Bust out my biggest hoops, jumped into my jeans I can really only stand up in
       G                                               D                      G
Find a fella wearin’ denim tight as he can fit em, see if he can keep up past ten
 
 
[Chorus]
G                          D
Hey I wanna get to know ya tonight
D
Have a little fun when my work is done
                      G
Honey, sit down by my side
                           D
Hey I wanna get to know ya tonight
D

Play ‘til the sun’ll come when the daylight’s done
                         G
Save me from my troubled mind
 
 
[Verse 2]
G
Well I’m drawn to jokers, for some godforsaken reason smokers
                                C
Or they’re just at the bars I’m in
        D
Men who love their women, who will laugh and stand up with ‘em
                          G
And know when to bow out again
G
Don’t push past me at my waist, say excuse me to my face
                              C
I can shuffle out the way all night
   D
Respect your bartenders, if you tip em do be generous
                           G
It don’t cost none to be polite
 
 
[Chorus]
G                          D
Hey I wanna get to know ya tonight
D
Have a little fun when my work is done
                      G
Honey, sit down by my side
                           D
Hey I wanna get to know ya tonight
D
Play ‘til the sun’ll come when the daylight’s done
                         G
Save me from my troubled mind
 
 
[Pedal Steel & Piano Solos]
G     C    G    D  G
 
 
[Chorus]
G                          D
Hey I wanna get to know ya tonight
D
Have a little fun when my work is done
                      G
Honey, sit down by my side
                           D
Hey I wanna get to know ya tonight
D
Play ‘til the sun’ll come when the daylight’s done
                         G
Save me from my troubled mind
 
 
[Outro]
D
Play ‘til the sun’ll come when the daylight’s done
                         G
Save me from my troubled mind
