Intro: C  G  F  G  C  (x2) 

Verse: 1 
C            G          Dm 
Sittin' at a bar in San Padre 
F               G         C 
Whiskey meltin' ice in my glass 
                G             Dm 
When she walked up and said, "Cowboy 
F            G             C 
Do those old boots like to dance?" 
    Dm                               G 
The band was playin' something sorta Spanish and blue 
         Dm              G 
I spilled half my drink, easin' off that stool 


[Refrão]

        C       G 
And the way she smiled 
  Am       G        F      G 
I knew she knew she had me 
   C         G 
We burned so fast 
     Am       G           F   C 
It was pretty while it lasted 
       Dm   C  F      G         C       G  F  G  C 
Like a lighted match on spilled whiskey 

Verse: 2 
C    G             Dm 
 I remember it was rainin' 
    F                G         C 
The morning that the fire went out 
           G         Dm 
She left a kiss on a matchbook 
F                   G        C 
Slipped off without makin' a sound 
           Dm                 G 
I held her long enough to know I couldn't hold her 
        Dm                      G 
But the world felt good with her head on my shoulder 


[Refrão]
 
        C       G 
And the way she smiled 
  Am       G        F      G 
I knew she knew she had me 
   C         G 
We burned so fast 
     Am       G           F   C 
It was pretty while it lasted 
       Dm   C  F      G         C        F  C 
Like a lighted match on spilled whiskey 

Bridge 
Dm                          G 
 Ain't no tellin' where she is right now 
  Dm                               G 
I think I'll drink another while I sit and think about 


[Refrão]

        C       G        Am  G  F  G 
And the way she smiled 
   C         G 
We burned so fast 
     Am       G           F   C 
It was pretty while it lasted 
       Dm   C  F      G         C        F  C 
Like a lighted match on spilled whiskey 
            Dm   C  F      G         C 
Just like a lighted match on spilled whiskey
