WASN'T THAT A PARTY Time: 2/2 Tenor: E Bass: C - D
CHORUS:
1 * * *
Could've been the whiskey
* * * *
Might've been the gin
* * * *
Could've been the three or four six-packs, I don't know
17 * *
But look at the mess I'm in
* 4 * *
My head is like a football
* 1 * *
I think I'm going to die
* 5 * *
Tell me, me oh, me oh my
* 1 * *
Wasn't that a party
1 * * *
Someone took a grapefruit
* * * *
Wore it like a hat
* * * * *
I saw someone under my kitchen table
57 * *
Talking to my old tom cat
* 4 *
They were talking about hockey
* 1 *
The cat was talking back
* 5 * *
Long about then every-thing went black
* 1 * *
Wasn't that a party (CHORUS)
* 4 * *
I'm sure it's just my memory
* 1 * *
Playing tricks on me
2 * * *
But I think I saw my buddy
* * 5 *
Cutting down my neighbour's tree (CHORUS)

NOTES:
- Chords change on each verse - no pattern

WASN'T THAT A PARTY (PAGE TWO)
* 4 * *
Billy Joe and Tommy
* 1 * *
Well they went a little far
2 * * *
They were sitting in the back yard, blowing on a sireen
* * 5 *
>From somebody's police car
* 1 * *
So you see, Your Honour
* * * *
It was all in fun
* * * *
The little bitty track meet down on main street
* 57 * *
Was just to see if the cops could run
* 4 * *
Well they run us in to see you
* 1 * *
In an alcoholic haze
* 5 * *
I sure can use those thirty days
* 1 * *
To re-cover from the party (CHORUS)
ENDING: CHORUS, REPEATING "wasn't that a party"
