This is a little story for ya guys
A
It's about a girl and a boy
A
and they're in love, you know that kinda story
A
and the guy, he's in a car, and he's on his way
A
He's on his way to pick up a girl, who he loves
A
He's feeling good!
A
He's got the top down, he's got the radio on
A
but he picks up the mobile phone
A
he says "darlin'?", I'm on my way
A
I'll only be a couple of minutes
A
We're gonna go out and do the movies
A
She says, "Darlin', I'm so sorry to tell you"
A
"My mama say's no, we have to stay in tonight"
A
"We have to look after the little one"
A
He says WHAT, I don't care,
A
we're still going out to the movies
A
She says "I'm so sorry babe, but my daddy says..."
A
What your daddy says?  Whatever,
A
I don't give a fuck what your daddy says
A
and he makes up a little song, but he's mad
A
he throws his phone across the car
A
but it's still on, so she can hear the little song
A
and it goes
A
something like this...

[Verse]
A
Get your party gown, get your pigtail down
A                          G D C G/B
Get you heart beating baby
A
Got my timin' right, got my act all tight
A                                           G D C G/B
It's gonna be tonight, my little school babe

[Pre Chorus]
E
Your mama says you won't, and your dady says you don't
E
And i'm boiling up inside
         G                       A
Ain't no way i'm going to lose this time
A
And now we get to the crux of the matter
A                  A A/B A/C A/C# D
This is his advice

[Chorus]
D
Tie your mother down, tie your mother down
A
Lock your daddy out of doors, I don't need him nosing 'round
D
Tie your mother down, tie your mother down
        G     D      C      G/B   A
Give me all,  your,  love,  tonight

[Verse]
A
Then he starts to play his guitar
A
I don't know how he manages this in a car...
A
[Lead for 16 measures]

[Verse]
E
Your momma and daddy, are gonna plague me till I die
                              G                   A
Why can't they understand i'm just a peace-lovin' guy

[Reverts to album version]

A
Well get out of my house, you're such a dirty louse, that's all I ever get from your...
A
Family ties, in fact I've ever heard a single civil word from those guys

[Pre Chorus]
E
But I don't give a light, I'm gonna make out all right
                                    G              A A/B A/C A/C# D
I've got a sweetheart hand to put a stop to all that

[Chorus]
D
Tie your mother down, tie your mother down
A
Take your little brother swimin' with a brick (that's alright)
D
Tie your mother down, tie your mother down
        G    D  C      G/B A   G D C G/B
Or you ain't no friend of mine
A
Just jam out and finish on G D C G/B A
