Capo: Fret 3
Tuning: Standard, E A D G B E
I wanted to play this song like they do live, in a lot of their acoustic bar
performances. It's a little loose on structure but very similar to Version 2,
which is played in C. Didn't feel like hitting transpose button every time.
Capo 3
Standard tuning
[Intro/verse] picking pattern (Like i said this part is free-styled a little bit,

[intro and verse] are just that repeated.
[Verse 1]
Welllll, she w
as standing in
the bar
I said, "Hello
, how do you d
o?"
She handed me
a beer with a
kangaroo
She spoke of p
laces I had ne
ver been
That she had t
raveled to
And we slowed
danced along t
o faster tunes
I made her lau
gh, I made a p
ass, I showed
her my half do
llar ring
She said, "Tha
t's pretty coo
l,
But classy gir
ls don't kiss
in bars, you f
ool"
[Interlude] (Picking ends here and strumming starts):
[Verse 2]
So later on th
e crowd calmed
down
And I believe
it was as if
Something drew
me closer to
her lips
So picture my
surprise when
I had tried to
lean in for a
kiss
And she just s
miled and turn
ed her head do
wn
I asked her, "
Why?" and she
replied,
"It was nothin
g I was doing
wrong, its jus
t what it is"
No, classy gir
ls don't kiss
in bars like t
his
[Chorus]
No, classy gir
ls don't kiss
in bars
Boys will brea
k their backs
and hearts
But its alrigh
t, the hardest
part is throu
gh
[Outro]
Oh it's throug
h
Oh it's throug
h
Oh it's throug
h
The hardest pa
rt is through.
