I have seen this tabbed many times but they are all missing a very Fun part of the song.
<-- is a slide guitar in the background that you can actually do with the acoustic
if you feel like it. The G# can be done without the top A and E strings.
What I do is use my index finger the the single Bb and then strum Bb again, then slide
to the A and then to the G#(without the top A and E), this leaves my second and ring
ready to slip into the following G chord.
F A F
I got a call from my best friend this evening
C F C
He said he wasn't going out with us guys on Friday night
A F G
Yeah, he was gonna change for his new found flame to keep her satisfied
C F
And I just laughed and said, "Hey man, well go ahead and try"
F A Bb G
'Cause I gave up smoking, women and drinking last night
F C F
It was the worst fifteen minutes of my life
