G C
[Verse 1]
G
Man it'd been a long day

I was sitting in that stand still out on the highway
Em
20 miles from the house, looking out at the brake lights
D
'Bout to lose my mind
G
Like a sign from the good Lord

I saw a cold beer here, next right, high up on a billboard
Em
So I hit the shoulder fast, and I put that old Ford
D
Right there by the front door
[Chorus]
C
Yeah, I walked in, sat down
C
Was just gonna have one round

Kill a cold one and a little time

Little did I know those green eyes
Em
Would hit me out of the blue

Yeah, I found you in the neon stars
Am G
Hell, I was just looking for a beer in a bar

It was just a little small talk

I walked in, sat down

Was just gonna have one round

I walked in, sat down
