G
There she was, little blue jean buzz
Em7
Just bare footing around
G
I said, "What's up?" She hopped in the truck
Em
And we were right away running the town
Am
She's the kinda girl that walks in to your lonely world
C
And everything dark just lights up
G
But all summers end, now she's gone with the wind
Em
And the reason I spend so many nights up
[Chorus]
G
Somebody, somebody shoulda told her
Em
This party, this party wasn't over
Am
Hands up in the air, still swaying
D
That band she loves still playing
C
She had this old boy from the boondocks
G
Sweet talking, walking on moon rocks
Em
I wish somebody woulda told her
D
This party, this party wasn't over
D
This party, this party wa-wa-wasn't over
[Verse 2]
G
I still hear her laughing like it just happened
Em7
Like I was just with her here
G
Well, she had the magic and I had the habit
Em
But then she just disappeared
Am
See, I'm the kinda guy that just can't get her off my mind
C
No matter how hard I try, she's all I think of
G
Another lesson learned, but hey, the world still turns
Em
So I guess it's time to turn another drink up
[Chorus]
G
Somebody, somebody shoulda told her
Em
This party, this party wasn't over
Am
Hands up in the air, still swaying
D
That band she loves still playing
C
She had this old boy from the boondocks
G
Sweet talking, walking on moon rocks
Em
I wish somebody woulda told her
D
This party, this party wasn't over
[Solo]
Repeat same chords (G, Em, Am, D, C)
[Bridge]
G
These days, I can't even hear a wave crash
Em7
And I get carried away and go George Strait back
G
To a slow dance out in the sand
Em
When the keg was still cold and she was holding my hand
[Chorus]
G
Somebody, somebody shoulda told her
Em
This party, this party wasn't over
Am
Hands up in the air, still swaying
D
That band she loves still playing
C
She had this old boy from the boondocks
G
Sweet talking, walking on moon rocks
Em
I wish somebody woulda told her
D
This party, this party wasn't over
[Ending]
G
No, it wasn't over
Em
Yeah, this party, this party, this party wasn't over
Am
Hands still swaying, band still playing
C
Damn, this party wasn't over
G
This party, this party, this party wasn't over
EmD
This party, this party, this party wasn't over
