If I could rate them on a scale from one to ten.
    G                                  C
I'm looking for a nine but eight could work 

right in.

Few more drinks and I might slip to five or even 
F
four.

But when tomorrow morning comes, and I wake up

with a number one..I swear I'll never do it anymore.

I don't mean to criticize the girls, at all.
      G                           C
Cause I'm no Robert Redford, even overhauled.
G   C
But we all picture in our minds a girl that looks 
     F
just right.
     G
Now, ain't it funny, ain't it strange, the way a 

man's opinions change, when he starts to face 
            C
that lonely night.
