Verse 1
(B flat major) (Bdim) (G major) (D major) (G major) (C major) (F major) Some
people have ways of telling
thing (G major) s that couldn't be true.
I guess I'm one of those jokers (C major)
because I've told a few. (F major)
Like the guy that goes out fishing,
you (G major) can always hear him say,
I (B flat major) got a few bites
(Bdim) but my (C major) luck wasn't right
(D major) and the (G major) big one (C major) got away.
(F major) Now (B flat major) I like to go out fish (Bdim) in'
for a (F major) different kind of fish,
(G major) you see (F major)
(G major) Collectin' beautiful women,
that's (C major) the kind of sport for me
But I (F major) lost my blue ribbon baby,
like the (G major) fisherman
I'm gonna say
I had her (Bdim) right in (B flat major) my lap,
but the line (C major) must have snapped (D major)
and the (G major) big one (C major) got away (F major) (B flat major) (Bdim) (F major) (D minor) (F major)
(D minor) (F major) (G major) (C major) (F major) (C major) (G major)
(B flat major) (Bdim) (D minor) (D major) (G major) (C major) (F major)
I've got a way with women
I (D minor) (F major) (D minor) (G major) know the right bait to toss
I know where (C major) to cast my lure for sure
And get my line across (F major)
Well I really snagged a rare one
I (G major) wish you could have seen her play
I came (B flat major) very near (Bdim) to the
(C major) catch of the year, (D major)
but the (G major) big one (C major) got away (F major)
I knew (B flat major) I hooked a dandy
when that beau (F major) ty took
a hold of my line
Bought a (G major) trophy to sit by my fireside,
just to show the friends of mine (C major)
Well, (G major) she (G flat major) took my hook line and sinker,
but (E flat minor) I couldn't reel (A flat major) her in to (E flat minor) stay
I could (B major) catch my limit of
(D flat major) everyday (G flat major) beau ties, (E flat major)
but the (G sharp major) big one (C sharp major) got away (F sharp major) (B major) (G sharp major)
(C sharp major) But (D sharp minor) the big one (C sharp major) got away
(F sharp major)
