Standard (EADGBE)

I’ve never been lucky




At picking up women




But this life that I live




Is not one that I choose




She was a waitress




With hair blond and curly




With a pretty black dress




And those japanese shoes


Chorus




Man I need to impress her




’cause I’d like to undress her




I need a song about sonja




When I’m singing tonight




She looked so pretty




As she poured my coffee




But she had her eye




On my friend at the bar




And I watched her watch him




And I watched her thinking




I wish her eye was on me



Chorus





And if I could sing her




A tender love ballad




I’d hope that the audience

might sing along




But I can’t find the right way




To tell her my feelings




And still make the words rhyme with sonja


No I’ve never been lucky




At picking up women




But this life that I live




Is not one that I choose




She was a waitress




Now she’s gone forever




And I’m stuck with this song




That I never will use





Man you need to impress her




If you want to undress her




Sing a song about sonja




When you’re singing tonight




Sing a song about sonja




When you’re singing tonight
