E I took my girl to go bowling downtown at the Red Door After an argument I started because I thought she didn't like me anymore I can't help it, sometimes I feel pitiful And of course, she's so young and beautiful A A# B G E - 8 times G E I bought us two glasses of Coke That's her favorite, and I wanted to make up for earlier But I dropped her glass and it broke So I just gave my glass to her A A# B G E - 8 times G E She laughed and so did I in our lane Then she went to the vending machine to buy a candy cane But right next to that was a boy I knew with a spring in his hand Playing a country pinball machine called "Stand By Your Man" I saw him talk to her, but I stayed in my lane and played my game steady And was thinking of the day when i'd be too old to throw a ball this heavy A A# B G E - 8 times G E But I guess I'm young now, so it's easy to knock 'em all down Then I looked and saw her say to him, "you're really hitting that ball around" And he's looking at her the way I did when i first met her I could see in his face white flowers and cups of coffee and love letters A A# B G E - 4 times G E I was sorry to interrupt that game But I went and did it anyway I dropped my red bowling ball through the glass of the machine And said, "Are you quick enough to hit this ball, Mr. Clean?" I was scared to lose her, so I couldn't help being mean A A# B G E - 8 times G E And that ended both of our games I said I was sorry, but my girl left with him just the same I thought how much I hate when love makes me act this way I was bent over a broken pinball machine in a bowling alley and I threw it all away G# A A# B D D# E - 8 times G E Well, isn't it all just a big game? | TransposeReset Font sizeReset Ukulele Chord DiagramsA A# D D# E G G# B Here you can see detailed diagrams for each ukulele chord used in the song.
