Song: Wasn't That A Party Tab

Wasn’t That A Party
By The Rovers

Capo 3

Song is in F but I put a capo on 3 and play key of D chords to make it easier


Chorus:
D
Could-a been the whiskey

Might-a been the gin

Could-a been the 3 or 4 six packs, I don’t know
     D7 
But look at the mess I’m in
                  G
My head is like a football
                  D
I think I’m gonna die
        A
Tell me me-oh-me-oh my
                D
A-wasn’t that a party

Someone took a grapefruit
Wore it like a hat
I saw someone under my kitchen table
Talkin’ to my old tomcat
They were talkin’ bout hockey
The cat was talking back 
A long about then everything went black
A-wasn’t that a party

Bridge 1:
                      G
I’m sure it’s just my mem’ry
                  D
Playin’ tricks on me
      E7 
But I think I saw my buddy
        A 
Cuttin’ down my neighbors tree

Chorus

Piano lead

Sax lead

Bridge 2:
               G 
Billy Joe and Tommy
                        D
Well they went a little far
          E7
They were sittin in my backyard
                      A
Blowin’ on a siren of somebody’s police car

So you see your honor
It was all in fun
That little bit of track meet down on Main Street
Was just to see if the cops could run
Well, they run us into see you
In an alcoholic haze
I sure can use those 30 days 
To recover from the party

Chorus (Change key to E)
