[C#m]
[Bm] [E]
Well, [A] she picked me up in a German car [C#m] And she took me out to an Irish bar
[Bm] Where I drank some beer in a plastic cup [E] Till I had some trouble [D] standing up
And then she drove downtown to a strobe-lit space
Where [C#m] all the guys wore chains and the thumb-pinned vase
Was [Bm] so intense I could barely feel my face [E] Then I think I asked her back to my [F#m] place
But that's all I [Bm] recall And when [E] I woke up in the hall
I was [F#m] alone and softly [Bm] groaning And [E] I lost my keys [C#] and lost my phone
And [F#m] I wondered what [Bm] I did or said [E] That I might soon regret
It was [F#m] a night I can't [Bm] remember It [E] was a girl I can't [A] forget
[C#m] [E]
[Bm] [E] While [A] I was weeping, walking the ceilings Then [C#m] the next evening when my friends walked in
[Bm] And when I asked them if they knew where I'd been
[E] They didn't speak at first, [B] they only crimmed You [A] see I'm not the type to get in fights
But [C#m] that might not have been the case last night
[Bm] Because they heard that I had a word or two [E] With the man who asked [C#] if she was you
[F#m] And if I took it the [Bm] wrong way I guess [E] that's not for me [A] to say
Though [F#m] it seems I may [Bm] have slept up [E] When I offered him [C#] some grooming tips
[F#m] But at least that helps [Bm] explain The cuts [E] and bruises on [A] my head
From [F#m] a night I [Bm] can't remember It [E] was a girl I can't [A] forget
[C#m] [F#m]
[Bm] [E]
[C#m] And it's all coming [F#m] back now Don't know how to react [Bm] now
Guess I'll let it go [E] I'm not so sure I want to know
[A] Well I was back at work at 9.15 [C#m] When a message popped up on my screen
[Bm] It said pick me up at 8.45 [E] And we can give it one more try
[F#m] And now that I'm [Bm] with her The whole [E] thing seems a bit [A] absurd
Well [F#m] she never fails [Bm] to tell the tale [E] Of the times she had [C#] to post my bail
[F#m] But she's given me [Bm] a second chance [E] I'm forever in [A] her debt
[F#m] Since the night I [Bm] can't remember [E] She's a girl I won't ever forget
[A]
