Intro: B-F#-E (2x)
B		               F#              E
It was only last june when her old man ran away
B		            F#                        E
She couldn't stop cryin' , she knew he was goin' to stay
B	       F#              E 
10:35 on a lonely friday night
B		                 F#              E
she was standin' by the fire--umm-- she was lookin' alright

B		                 F#              
I asked her if she wanted to dance and she said,
E
All she wanted was a good man who wanted to
B		F#		  E
know if I thought I was qualified

B		F#		  E
I said baby don't waste your time,
B		F#		  E
I know what's on your mind
E	 		F#	   E
I may be qualified for a one night stand
E			F#
But I can never take the place of your man

B-F#-E (2x)  

It hurt me so bad when I saw the tears in her eyes
She was all he ever wanted and now she wanted to die
He left her with a baby and another one on the way
She couldn't stop cryin' she knew he was goin' to stay

She asked me if we couldn't be friends and I said
O Honey baby that's OK you know and
I know know know you wouldn't be satisfied.

I said baby don't waste your time
and I know what's on your mind
I may be qualified for a one night stand
but I could never take the place of your man

-Solo- (B-F#-E 4x)

I may be qualified for a one night stand
But I could never take the place of your man
-repeat--

1-2-3,
G	   A      C    D
La La La La Ohhhh Hoooo Whoa
G	   A      C    D
Never take the place of your man
G	   A      C    D
That's all I need girl
G	   A      C    D
Is a ,one night one night one night stand
G	   A      C    D
I don't wanna be like a steak in your mind
G	   A      C    D

G	   A      C    D
sha la la la sha la la    (fade out)
