More Than I Bargained For!

V6

[Spoken intro – Amused male drawl, guitar underneath] Remember when I said I wished there were two? Yeah... One will do. [Verse 1] She caught me looking, didn't look away Said, "You got something you'd like to say?" I had a good line till she came through the door Now I'm staring at my drink like I've never talked before She pulled up a chair, said, "Is this seat free?" I said, "Everything's stopped working, including me" She laughed so hard that she nearly spilled her wine Then said, "Well, handsome, take your time" [Chorus – Full band, swaggering hook] She's more than I bargained for I wished she'd come closer, now I can't find the floor She's a whole lot of something and a little bit more Got me forgetting what my own name's for I thought I could handle that smile at my door Now I'm leaning on the frame for support She's more, more, more than I bargained for And I'm still coming back for more [Verse 2] I used to watch her when she took her break Now she's watching every silly move I make I said, "Come play in my sandbox sometime" She said, "You sure that little shovel can keep up with mine?" Well, there went the speech I'd rehearsed all week She leaned in close, put a kiss on my cheek I stood there grinning till she turned around Said, "Close your mouth, boy, you'll catch something now" [Chorus – Big harmonies, blues guitar fills] She's more than I bargained for I wished she'd come closer, now I can't find the floor She's a whole lot of something and a little bit more Got me forgetting what my own name's for I thought I could handle that smile at my door Now I'm leaning on the frame for support She's more, more, more than I bargained for And I'm still coming back for more [Guitar solo – Dirty blues bends, stomping drums] [Bridge – Band drops to bass and handclaps] I said I wished there were two, what was I thinking? One's got me talking to myself and blinking She said, "You're awfully quiet. Was it something I said?" No, I'm just trying to get the blood back to my head But when she stopped laughing and reached for my hand I found a few words I hadn't planned Said, "You know, you're even sweeter up close" She smiled, "Now that's the one I like the most" [Final chorus – Full band, loose joyful delivery] She's more than I bargained for I wished she'd come closer, now I can't find the floor She's a whole lot of something and a little bit more Got me forgetting what my own name's for I thought I could handle that smile at my door Now I'm moving my chair a little closer to yours You're more, more, more than I bargained for And I'm still coming back for more [Outro – Spoken over closing guitar riff] She said, "Still wish there were two?" I said, "Honey, I'm barely surviving you." [Short laugh, final band hit]
