_ _ _ [N] Here's a tune some of you might know.
_ _ I want to [G] say what a pleasure it is to be here.
[N] First of all, I've been here, you know, for _ eight years and that was my one and [C#] only pen.
[G#m] I never got a chance [C#] to see it all.
There's too [F#] much, right?
_ [G] But it's a heck of a lot of fun, right?
I'm going to sing a little bit of it.

_ _ [B] _ _ [F#] _ _ _
mullet I could not [B] [F#] sleep, _ _ whiskey that I drank was cheap.
_ I'm shaking hands, I [B] went [F#] and I lit my last [C#] cigarette.
_ [F#] _ [C#] _ _ _ [F#] Yeah, the sun came and I [B] had a fit, _ [F#] and sleepy eyed I [B] reached my [F#] bed.
_ I saw you sleep, it came there all covered in [B] worm.
_ [F#] _ _ _ _ [B] _
Sussing [F#] in that lady, _ [A] how much obliged [B] indeed.
_ [F#] [B] You sure have [F#] saved this man [B] who so was [F#] in need.
_ [B] _ [F#] _ _ _ [B] I thought there [F#] was [A#m] no reason _ [F#] [A] for all these things [F#] I'd [B] do.
_ [F#] [B] With a smile and [F#] I said [B] I'll return [F#] with you.
_ _ _ _ _ _ Days left the night [B] [F#] behind, _ and shadows roll across my mind.
_ I sometimes find myself [B] [F#] alone out walking [C#] the street.
_ _ _ _ _ [F#] Yes, and when I'm feeling [B] down and [F#] blue, _ then all I do is [B] think [F#] of you.
_ And all my foolish [B] problems seem to [F#] fade away.
_ [B] _ _ [F#] _ _ [G#m] _ [F#] _ [B] _
Sussing in [F#] [A#m] that lady, _ [F#] [A] how much obliged [B] indeed.
_ [F#] _ [B]
You sure have [F#] saved this man [B] who so [F#] was in need.
_ [B] _ [F#] _ _ _ [G#m] [F#] I [B] thought there [F#] was [A#m] no reason _ [A]
for all these things [F#] I'd [B] do.
_ [F#] [B] With a smile and [F#] I said I'll [B] return with [F#] _ _ _ you. _ _ _

[F#] _ _ [G#m] [F#] Oh, [B] no _ _ [A#m] _
