#1.
A D
Well now baby you're a looker and I know what you're looking for
A E7
You been looking over every man at the bar
A D
Well honey I know I got a few years on you
A E7 A
But if you're shopping around let me tell you a thing or two
(*Note, pickup tempo to full as go into 2nd verse, singing and playing.)
#2.
D
Well I look a little rough and I got a few miles on me
A E7
My body needs work and my style ain't what to used to be
A D
And honey I'll admit there's places where I'm wearing thin
A E7 A
But I ain't broke down I'm just good'n broken in
Chorus
D A
Well I may be worn but baby I ain't worn out
E7
Let me take you for a ride and I'll show you what I'm talking about
D A (*Note, very short pause here)
I guarantee there's a lot of me left to love
D (single stroke) A E7 A
------------------Well I may be used but baby I ain't used up
Instrumental
#3.
D
I been wrecked a few times and honey it shows I guess
A E7
There's been once or twice that you could say that I was repossessed
A D
There's one little thing that I think ought to be understood
A E7 A
It ain't how you look it's what you got under your hood
Chorus
D A
Well I may be worn but baby I ain't worn out
E7
Let me take you for a ride and I'll show you what I'm talking about
D A (*Note, very short pause here)
I guarantee there's a lot of me left to love
D (single stroke) A E7 A
------------------Well I may be used but baby I ain't used up
Instrumental to 'fade' ending.
