The intro pattern is a G,C,G,D...with hammer-on's/pull-off's on the D string  
at the conclusion of playing the C, then again on the D string at the  
conclusion of playing the D (listen to the song...it is very clear) 
 
*note: this same intro pattern, with the hammer-on/pull-off on the C's and  
D's, is also played in the chorus*

Randy and Danny Ray 
They'll show back-up any day 
That's one thing you can count on 
But sometime's they'll be long gone 
 
I'd rather be hunting 
Hooked on fishing 
I read it on their t-shirt 
And if you don't believe it

Verse 3: 
 
Hardwood floor creakin 
Bedroom door squekin 
She's standing in the kitchen

Kiss her on the forehead 
Asked her how she slept 
She says, 'honey it's so early, 
We probably shouldn't speak yet'

Piano/Steel Again
