Tuning: Standard
Capo 2

Intro: G walk up to C

VERSE 1
I've [C]never been [C]lucky at [F]picking up [C]women
But this [F]life that I [C]live is not [Dm]one that I [C]choose
[F]She was a [C]waitress with [F]hair blond and [C]curly
With a [F]pretty black [C]dress and those [G]Japanese [C]shoes

CHORUS
Man I [G]need to im[G]press her 'cause I'd [F]like to un[C]dress her
I need a [F]song about [C]Sonja when I'm [G]singing [C]tonight

VERSE 2
[C]She looked so [C]pretty as [F]she poured my [C]coffee
But [F]she had her [C]eye on my [Dm]friend at the [C]bar
And [F]I watched her [C]watch him and [F]I watched her [C]thinking
[F]I wish her [G]eye was on [C]me

CHORUS
Man I [G]need to im[G]press her 'cause I'd [F]like to un[C]dress her
I need a [F]song about [F]Sonja when I'm [G]singing [C]tonight
And [G]if I could [G]sing her a [F]tender love [C]ballad
I'd [F]hope that the [C]audience [Dm]might sing [G]along
But I [F]can't find the [C]right words to [F]tell her my [C]feelings
And [F]still make the [C]words rhyme with [G]Sonja

VERSE 3
No I've [C]never been [C]lucky at [F]picking up [C]women
But this [F]life that I [C]live is not [Dm]one that I [C]choose
[F]She was a [C]waitress now [F]she's gone for[C]ever
And I'm [F]stuck with this [C]song that I [G]never will [C]use

CHORUS
Man you [G]need to im[G]press her if you [F]want to un[C]dress her
Sing a [F]song about [C]Sonja when you're [G]singing [C]tonight
Sing a [F]song about [C]Sonja when you're [G]singing [C]tonight
