[Intro]
G D C G Am (hammer on)
 
G                            D/F#
Well me and my lady had our first big fight,
Em                                D
So I drove around till I saw the neon lights,
Cadd9                      G                      Am (hammer 2nd string)
At a corner bar, and it just seemed right, so I pulled up,
G                             D/F#
Not a soul around but the ol' barkeep,
Em                       D
Down at the end lookin half asleep,
Cadd9                      G                      Am (hammer on)
But he walked up and said what'll it be? I said the Good Stuff,
 
 
C                               D       C                  D
He didn't reach around for the whiskey, he didn't pour me a beer,
C                       D
His blue eyes kinda went misty,
C                      Am  D
Said you can't find that here,
 
       G                              D
'Cause it's the first long kiss on a second date
Em                            G
Mamma's all worried when you get home late
Cadd9                        G
And droppin' the ring in the spaghetti plate,
Cadd9                             C     D
'Cause your hands are shaking so much
  G                          D
It's the way she looks with rice in her hair
Em                         G
Eatin' burnt suppers the whole first year
Cadd9                       G             Cadd9   C
And askin' for seconds, to keep her from tearin' up,
     D                G      D   Am (hammer on)
Yeah man, that's the Good Stuff
 
 
G                            D/F#
He grabbed a carton of milk and poured a glass,
Em                                G
I smiled and said, I'll have some of that,
Cadd9                        G                  Am (hammer on)
  We sat there and talked as an hour passed, like old friends
G                             D/F#
Saw a black and white picture and it caught my stare,
Em                       G
Was a pretty girl with bouffant hair,
Cadd9                      G                       Am (hammer on)
He said that's my Bonnie, taken 'bout a year after we wed,
C                               D
He said, I spent 5 years in the bottle,
         C                    D
When the cancer took her from me,
C                            D
I've been sober for 3 years now.
 
Cadd9                                  C       Am
'Cause the one thing stronger than the whiskey was,
 
G                            D/F#
Was the sight of her holdin' my baby girl
Em                                G
The way she adored that string of pearls
Cadd9                        G
I gave her the day that our youngest boy, Earl
Cadd9                        G   D
Married his high school love
G                          D/F#
An' it's a new T-shirt saying, "I'm a Grandpa"
Em                                G
Bein' right there as our time got small
Cadd9                        G           Cadd9      G
An' holdin' her hand, when the good Lord called her up
     D                G      D   Am (hammer on)
Yeah man, that's the Good Stuff
 
G  D  C  G
 
          D                         G
He said, "When you get home, she'll start to cry"
      D                          G
When she says, "I'm sorry" say, "So am I"
    G                D/F#            Am (hammer on)
An' look into those eyes, so deep in love
    D
An' drink it up
        G                D   Am (hammer on)
'Cause that's the good stuff
 G          D     C  (hammer on)
That's the good stuff
