Verse
C
Well the times gettin' hard for you little girl

G                                 D
I'm a hummin' and a strummin' all over God's world

C
You don't remember when you got your last meal

G                      D  
And you forgot just how a woman feels

Bb                       
You didn't know what rock n' roll was

Eb
Until you met a drummer on a Greyhound bus

Bb
I got there in the nick of time

Eb
Before he got his hands across your state line 

Chorus
         C                            F       repeat then G (10th fret) & hold
You know I I I I... Once bitten twice shy, babe
