GD
Well me and my lady had our first big fight,
CG
So I drove around till I saw the neon lights,
CGCGC
At a corner bar, and it just seemed right, so I pulled up,
GD
Not a soul around but the ol' barkeep,
CG
Down at the end lookin half asleep,
CGCGC
But he walked up and said what'll it be? I said the Good Stuff,
CDCD
He didn't reach around for the whiskey, He didn't pour me a beer,
CD
His blue eyes kinda went misty,
C
Said you can't find that here,
GD
Cause it's the first long kiss on a second date
CG
Mamma's all worried when you get home late
CG
And droppin the ring in the spaghetti plate,
CGCD
Cause your hands are shaking so much
GD
It's the way she looks with rice in her hair
CG
Eatin burnt suppers the whole first year
CGCGC
And askin for seconds, to keep her from tearin up,
DGDCGC
Yeah man that's the Good Stuff
GD
He grabbed a carton of milk and poured a glass
CG
I smiled and said I'll have some of that
CGCGC
We sat there and talked as an hour passed like ol' friends
GD
Saw a black and white picture and it caught my stare
CG
Was a pretty girl with bouffant hair
CGCGC
He said that's my Bonnie, takin bout a year after we wed
CDCD
He said spent five years in the bottle when the cancer took her from me
CD
I've been sober for three years now,
CGCD
Cause the one thing stronger than the whiskey was the
GD
The sight of her holdn my baby girl
CG
The way she adored that string of pearls
CG
I gave her the day that our youngest boy Earl
CGCD
Married his high school love
GD
And it's a new T-shirt sayin I'm a Grand Pa
CG
Being right there as our time got small
CGCGC
And holding her hand, when the good lord called her up
DGDCGC
Yeah man that's the Good Stuff
GDCGCDG
He said when you get home she'll start to cry
DG
When she says I'm sorry, say so am I
GDCDC
And look into those eyes so deep in love
D
And drink it up
GDCGC
Cause that's the Good Stuff
GDCGC
That's the Good Stuff
