Thats My Story - Collin Raye
[Verse 1]
[C]I came in as the sun came up
[C]She glared at me over her coffee cup
She said, "[F]Where've you been?" So I thought real hard
And said, "I [C]fell asleep in that hammock in the yard"
She said, "[G]You don't know it, boy, but you just blew it"
Well I said "[C]that's my story and I'm sticking to it."
|[Chorus]
|[F]That's my story Oh [C]that's my story
|Well I [G]ain't got a witness and I can't prove it
|But [C]that's my story and I'm sticking to it.
[Verse 2]
[C]I got that deer in the headlights look
[C]She read my face like a cover of a book
and said, "[F]don't expect me to believe all that static
[C]Cause just last week I threw that hammock in the attic
My [G]skin got so thin you could see right through it
And I stuttered "[C]that's my story and I'm stic-sticking to it"
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
[C] [Bb] [F] [C]
(soken) You know the time comes when a wise man knows the best that he can do
Is just look her in the eye and beg for mercy and face the bitter truth
[Verse 3]
[C]Honey me and boys played cards all night
[C]No hanky panky not a woman in sight
I [F]know I should have called and baby I-I'm real sorry
[C]Let's get a cellular phone and then you won't have to worry
You [G]know how much I love ya and darling I'm ready to prove it
[C]That's my story and I'm sticking to it.
|[Chorus]
|[F]That's my story Oh [C]that's my story
|Well I [G]ain't got a witness and I can't prove it
|But [C]that's my story and I'm sticking to it.
[Outro]
You know [G]I ain't going to do a thing unless you approve it
That's [C]my story and I'm sticking to it.
