 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)

 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)
