I took my girl to go bowling downtown at the red door after and argument I started cause I thought she didn?t like me anymore I cant help it sometimes I feel pitiful and of course she?s so young and beautiful CHORUS: e--------------------------| -----------| B--------------------------| -----------| G--------------------------|(x4) -----------|(x1) D--7--8--9-----5--5--2-----| --5--5--2--| A--7--8--9-----5--5--2-----| --5--5--2--| E--5--6--7-----3--3--0-----| --3--3--0--| _______________________________________________________________________________ VERSE bought us two glasses of coke that?s her favorite and I wanted to make up for earlier But I dropped her glass and it broke so I just gave my glass to her CHORUS ______________________________________________________________________________ VERSE She laughed and so did I in our lane then she went to the vending machine to buy a candy cane but next to that was a boy I knew with a spring in his hand playing a country pinball machine called "stand by your man" I saw him talk to her but I stayed in my lane and played steady and was thinking of a day when Id be too old to throw a ball this heavy CHORUS ______________________________________________________________________________ VERSE But I guess I?m young now so Its easier to knock ?em all down Then I look and saw her say to him "you?re really Hittin? that ball around" And he?s lookin? at her the way I did when I first met her I can see in his face white Flowers, Cups of Coffee, and love letters. CHORUS ______________________________________________________________________________ VERSE (this time only x6) I was sorry to interrupt their game but I went and did it anyway. I dropped my red bowling ball through the glass of his machine and I said "are you quick enough to hit this ball Mr. Clean?" I was scared to lose her so I couldn?t help being mean. CHORUS ______________________________________________________________________________ VERSE (this time only x6) And that ended both our games I said I was sorry but my girl left with him just the same I thought how much I hate when love makes me act this way I was bent over a broken pinball machine in a bowling alley and I threw it all away.
