One, two, who the hell are you?

A7 B7 E (noodle on g string)
Twas the hottest night in town surely for years
A7* B7 F#min7sus
They're hooking up the TVs outside the bars, the sweet ma-hoo
F#min7sus B7 C#m F#7
Moon hit my eye like a big old scallop pie
G (then walk bass notes F# F) E F#7sus
And I'm all the way with a nifty lil' number like you
C B7 E
Yeh I'm all the way with a nifty lil' number like you

Now, how did you smile when you were five?
What trouble did you get your good old self into at nine, hoo?
How did you flirt in that debutante skirt?
What a Cheshire dream, a nifty lil' number like you
C B7 E
I'm all the way with a nifty lil' number like you

A7 F#7 A7

E A7
Her hair falls out behind just like a long black limousine
F#7 A7
Teasin' with the life you know this boy could only dream
E A7
I've got mosaic life, with nothing to decide
G (then walk bass notes F# F) E F#7sus
I'm all the way with a nifty lil' number like you
C7 B7* A7 E
I wanna bed on down with a nifty lil' number like you

And now back's all broke and my brain's turned to sour mash
Yeh for who stole her soul and banked that greasy cash
But as soon as I hear that Telecaster, my reds all turn to blue
And I'm all the way with a nifty lil' number like you
Yeh I wanna lay on down with a nifty lil' number like you

Her hair falls out behind just like a long black limousine
Teasin' of the life you know this boy could only dream
I've got mosaic life, with nothing to decide
I'm all the way with a nifty lil' number like you
I wanna lay on down with a nifty lil' number like you

E x 4 (maybe hit a C# bass note here and there to match Andy)

E C#m A7
You know it's killing me sweet, but what am I gonna do about it?
E C#m A7
You know it's killing me sweet, but what am I gonna do without it?
F#7 A7
Oh that sweet bourbon and dry
C7 B7 E
Sit on down, get your toes wet, bite my lip and I'll make you my wife

E A7 F#7 A7 from here on out...

Her hair falls out behind just like a long black limousine
Teasin' of the life you know this boy could only dream
I've got mosaic life, with nothing to decide
With nothing to decide, I want
I want nothing to decide

Her hair falls out behind just like a long black limousine
Teasin' of the life you know this boy could only dream
No shit Sherlock, she makes my shingles rock
I'm all the way with a nifty lil' number like you
I wanna lay on down with a nifty lil' number like you
I'm gonna bed on down with a nifty lil' number like
All down, a nifty lil' number like
Bed on down with a nifty lil' number like you, oh

at the end, you repeat the C7 - B7 - A7 bit a couple of times, I reckon.
