Intro.: I just can't get away form a good
C G C
time
G
It started out innocent enough, hanging in
the backyard working on my truck
C
Turning some wrenches, cranking some tunes
a typical Saturday afternoon
G
Next thing I know my neighbor Pete walked
back, said his weed wacker ran out of gas
C
We looked hard, couldn't find a drop,ended
up at the fridge in the back of my shop
(Pre-Chorus)
Em
One cold one turned into four, four's got
D
a way of turning into more
C
Bust out the wieners, bust out the buns,
fire up the grill, gonna have a little fun
(Chorus)
G
It follows me around wherever I go, just
Like a wake behind my old bass boat
C
One minute I'm just hanging around, next
thing you know a damn party breaks out
Em
Hey, I'm just a victim of the circumstance
D
I've learned to make it all a part of my
plans
C
It don't matter how hard I try,
G D G
I just can't get away from a good time
Solo: C G C
G
We were cutting it up and telling some
jokes, talking Nascar and UFO's
C
That chain-linked fence don't keep out
much, the rest of the block started
showing on up.
G
Ran out of charcoal, ran to the store,
they were running the deal on cases of
Coors
C
If you bought one it was regular price,
but if you bought two it, you got a free
bag of ice
(Pre-Chorus)
Em
Hell, so I bought four and it made me grin
D
I was walking out when pretty girls were
walking in
C
You could say the stars just lined-up just
right, but it ain't luck man, it's just my
life
(Chorus)
G
It follows me around wherever I go,
just like a wake behind my old bass boat
C
One minute I'm just hanging around, next
thing you know a damn party breaks out
Em
Hey, I'm just a victim of the circumstance
D
I've learned to make it all a part of my
plans
C
It don't matter how hard I try, I just
G D G
can't get away from a good time
Solo:
C G C
Oh no, I can't
(Pre-Chorus)
Em
I guess that ol'truck's gonna wait another
D
day, maybe two or three, it keeps going
this way
C
Oh, but I don't care, say what you want
man, we only get to live it up once
(Half-Chorus)
G
It follows me around wherever I go,
just like a wake behind my old bass boat
C
One minute I'm just hanging around,
next thing you know a damn party breaks
out
(Chorus)
G
Yeah, it follows me around wherever I go,
just like a wake behind my old bass boat
C
One minute I'm just hanging around,
next thing you know a damn party breaks
out
Em
Hey, I'm just a victim of the circumstance
D
can't turn down a drink, can't turn down a
dance.
C
It don't matter how hard I try,
G D
I just can't get away,
Em C D
I just can't get away, I can't get away
G C
from a good time
G C G
I just can't get away from a good time.
