Am                    F
Saw a dancin' young lady, who worked in a bar
 Am                    E
A dozen lone rangers, don't know who they are
 Am                    F
The waitress was spinnin', my head was ajar
 E                    Am
And I should have been home with you
 Am

[Verse]
 Am                    F
Saw a reelin' old drunk man, dancin' around
 Am                    E
Thought his gray whiskers, still must have been brown
 Am                    F
Ida Lupino, wouldn't keep her dress down
E                  Am
I should have been home with you

[Verse]
 Am                    F
The band rock and rolled, but it wasn't the best
 Am                    E
Nearly all of them, all sound like the rest
 Am                    F
Some girls look pretty, but you were the best
E                  Am
That's why I came home with you

[Verse]
 Am                    F
Got home about daylight, I been gone too long
 Am                    E
Woke up at eleven, and saw you were gone
 Am                    F
So I drank lots of coffee, and wrote you this song
E                    Am
I wish I'd have been home with you

[Outro]
E                    Am
I wish I'd have been home with you
E                    Am
I wish I'd have been home with you
