CC
Welllll, she was standing in the bar
FF
I said, "Hello, how do you do?"
GFCC
She handed me a beer with a kangaroo
CCF
She spoke of places I had never been
F
That she had traveled to
GFCC
And we slowed danced along to faster tunes
CCF
I made her laugh, I made a pass, I showed her my half dollar ring
F
She said, "That's pretty cool,
GFCC
But classy girls don't kiss in bars, you fool"
Interlude: CCFFGFCCC
So later on the crowd calmed down
FF
And I believe it was as if
GFCC
Something drew me closer to her lips
CCFF
So picture my surprise when I had tried to lean in for a kiss
GFCC
And she just smiled and turned her head down
C
I asked her, "Why?" and she replied,
CFF
"It was nothing I was doing wrong, its just what it is"
GFCC
No, classy girls don't kiss in bars like this
FG
No, classy girls don't kiss in bars
FG
Boys will break their backs and hearts
FGCFGG
But its alright, the hardest part is through
CFGG
Oh it's through
CFGG
Oh it's through
CFGG
Oh it's through
C
The hardest part is through.

I just played several variations along with the video and it is indeed E B c# A. Obviously any of them work, but if you wanna play with the video in the same key, it’s E B c# A.

Doesn’t really matter what key, as long as you’ve got the I V vi IV progression.
