We Didnt See A Thing

Biography:

By most accounts, George Jones (born George Glenn Jones September 12, 1931 in Saratoga, Texas, died April 26, 2013, in Nashville, Tennessee), was the finest vocalist in the recorded history of country music. Initially, he was a hardcore honky tonker in the tradition of Hank Williams, but over the course of his career he developed an affecting, nuanced ballad style. In the course of his career, he never left the top of the country charts, even as he suffered innumerable personal and professional difficulties.

[Intro]
D G D A D

D G D
Well I swear, I didn't see you with your wife's best girlfriend
E A
Drinkin' beer and a dancin' to that western swing
D G
And I didn't see you kiss her and leave that barroom with her
D A D
No I didn't see you, and I didn't see you, and we didn't see a thing

D G D
George, I know I didn't hear you tell that blound that you weren't married
E A
I know I didn't see you hid- in' your weddin' ring, neither did I
D G
And I know I couldn't have heard you call your wife and tell her that you were workin'
D A D
No, nah, oh, I didn't see you, and I didn't see you, and we didn't see a thing

[Chorus]
G D
We've got to stick together to keep our stories straight
No, don't forget Ray
I was down in Atlanta, sure you were
A
And I was workin' late
D
Yeah, you know, it's always good to see you
G
George, it's good to see you too
D A D
But I didn't see you, and I didn't see you, and we didn't see a thing

D G D A D

D G
Hey Ray, by the way, did you leave that hundred bucks you owe me
D
I don't know what you're talkin' about George
E A
Well, I'm sure you recall our bet on last night's football game
D G
No, I don't, but you know, if I had seen you, I certainly would've paid ya
D A D
But I didn't see you, and I didn't see you, and we didn't see a thing

[Chorus]
G D
We've got to stick together to keep our stories straight
Don't forget I was down in Atlanta
A
And don't you forget I was working late
D
Oh, you know it's always good to see you
G
George, it's good to see you, too
D A D
But I didn't see you ,and I didn't see you, and we didn't see a thing

D A D
I didn't see you, and I didn't see you, and we didn't see a thing -----
