From " Honkytonk U" (2005)
(Toby Keith, Scotty Emerick)

Capo: 3rd Fret

INTRO:  [G]   [A]   [D] [D/F#] [D]

She said I seen you in [G]here before  [A]
I said I been here a [D]time or two
She said Hello my name is [G]Bobby Jo  [A]
Meet my twin sister [D]Betty Lou
And we're both feelin' kinda [G]wild tonight  [A]
You're the only cowboy [D]in this place
And if you're up for a [E]rodeo
I'll put a big Texas [A]smile on your face...[NC]I said girls...

CHORUS #1:
I ain't as good as I [G]once was  [A]
I got a few [D]years on me now
But there was a [G]time, back in my [A]prime
When I could really [D]lay it down [D/F#] [D]
If you need some [G]love tonight  [A]
Then I might have [D]just e[D/F#]nough [Bm]
I ain't as good as I [G]once was, but I'm as [A]good once
As I e[G]ver [G/F#]was [Bm]

INTRO

I still hang out with my [G]best friend Dave [A]
I've known him since we were [D]kids at school
Last night he had a few [G]shots, got in a tight [A]spot
Hustlin' a [D]game of pool
With a couple of [G]redneck boys  [A]
One great big fat [D]biker man
I heard David yell a[E]cross the room
Hey buddy, how 'bout a [A]helpin' hand...I said [NC]Dave....

CHORUS #2:
I ain't as good as I [G]once was  [A]
My how the [D]years have flown
But there was a [G]time, back in my [A]prime
When I could really [D]hold my own [D/F#] [D]
If you want to [G]fight tonight  [A]
Guess them boys don't look [D]all that [D/F#]tough [Bm]
I ain't as good as I [G]once was, but I'm as [A]good once
As I e[G]ver [G/F#]was [D]

BRIDGE:
I used to be [C]hell on wheels  [G]
Back when I was a [D]younger man
Now my body says [E]you can't do this boy 
But my pride says oh [A]yes you can...[NC]

CHORUS #3:
I ain't as good as I [G]once was  [A]
That's just the [D]cold hard truth
I still throw a few [G]back, talk a little [A]smack
When I'm feelin' [D]bullet proof [D/F#] [D]
So don't double-dog [G]dare me now  [A]
'Cause I might have to [D]call your bluff [D/F#] [Bm]
I ain't as good as I [G]once was, but I'm as [A]good once
As I e[G]ver [G/F#]was [D]

May not be as good as I [G]once was, but I'm as [A]good once
As I [G]ever [G/F#]was [D]
