Make Up And Faded Blue Jeans(Chords)

	        
Verse 
   E                                           A 
In downtown Modesto, I was working the Holiday Inn 
        E                                                      B7 
We were set with a gig that would last us, throughout the week end 
      E                                           A 
I was playing a new song I wrote, on the way into town 
         E                           B                        E 
When she came in the front door, and found her a place to sit down 

  E                                         A 
I knew right away, she knew the words to my songs 
          E                                                   B7 
Cause she stared at my big guitar and followed my fingers too long 
E                                             A 
She had the likeness of a girl, I'd seen in a dream 
     E                          B                     E 
But, lights can do wonders with makeup and faded blue jeans 

    E                                              A 
The last thing I needed was somebody messin' up my mind 
     E                                                 B7 
So I found a hundred reasons for turning away one more time 
          E 
She could cause me to sing bad 
                              A 
And fall out of love with gui tars 
    E                      B                   E 
And blow all my chances of being a big singing star 

     E                                                     A 
With one passin' glance I could tell she was young for her age 
         E                                                   B7 
Yeah she got to lookin' better as she got down closer to the stage 
           E                                                 A 
And as she sipped on her wine I knew just the kind she would be 
    E                      B7                       E 
And somehow I knew she was here to do bad things to me 

    E                                              A 
The last thing I needed was somebody messin' up my mind 
     E                                                 B7 
So I found a hundred reasons for turning away one more time 
          E 
She could cause me to sing bad 
                              A 
And fall out of love with gui tars 
    E                      B                   E 
And blow all my chances of being a big singing star 

          E 
She could cause me to sing bad 
                              A 
And fall out of love with gui tars 
    E                      B                   E 
And blow all my chances of being a big singing star 
                       B 
Blow all my chances at being a country music star
