Verse 1
[D] I ain’t lookin’ for no trouble, ain’t wantin’ to make a scene
By [A] getting drunk, starting a fight, that ain’t my kind a thing.
I’ll [D] have a couple draft beers and take it nice and easy,
And [A] call it a night with one or two shots of fine whiskey.
I nod, say, Uh huh,” that’s good enough for [A] me. [A7]

Pre-Chorus 1
Then I [G] get up from the bar, put a couple quarters in the jukebox,
Play some Waylon and Patsy [A] Cline [A7] ‘cause:

Chorus
I’m [G] here for a little [A] taste of the better [D] times.
Man, I’m tired, but I ain’t ready to head home.
Ain’t no one [G] waitin’, ain’t [A] no one gonna [D] worry
If I have me another one.
You see, I’m just [G] lookin’ to put some ease to my troubles.
[G] I’m here for a little [A] taste of the better [D] times.

D A em G

Verse 2
This place is kinda quiet, but tonight that’s okay by me.
Sometimes when I got the mis’ries, I don’t want no company.
Oh, but here’s this guy wants to talk, he’s in my face.
Got some kinda mood on, he’s mad at the human race.
I nod, say, “Uh huh,” wish he’d just go away.

Pre-Chorus 2
So I get up from the bar, put a couple quarters in the jukebox,
Play Josh Turner and LeAnn Rimes ‘cause:

Bridge
I close my eyes, do a little day dreaming.
[bm] Damn, don’t that music sound real fine. [A] See . . . [A7]

Chorus Repeat

Tag
Yeah, I’m [G] here for a little [A] taste of the better [D] times.
