 But don't ask her on a straight tequila night

 Blames her broken heart on every man in sight

VERSE2

           A           E           D
 Here's a glass of Chablis, some quarters in change
        A                 E         D
 Maybe you can turn her love life around
           A              E          D
 Then she won't need the salt or the lime anymore
     A             E       D
 To shoot that old memory down

      F#m            E
 Just remember her heart's on the mend
             D              E
 If you ever come back to see her again
