[G] I get [C] my whiskey from [G] a well, except on [C] holidays, then it's [D] the top shell.
[C] But tonight, [A] I don't mind if I [G] spend a little [C] more,
cause [G] you're a tolerant woman, and [D] this world is [G] at war.
I know you [C] witnessed my [G] decline.
You used to push back [C] the darkness [D] like a floodlight,
but [C] tonight, that's a secret like [G] the soul of [C] a whore.
[G] If you want to have fun, [D] you'll just have to [G] ignore.
Now I let [C] my troubles [G] solve themselves.
I used to get [D] involved, but [D] I'm just no help.
But [C] tonight, [D] let's pretend [G] we're just [C] like we were.
Let me stay [G] until the morning.
I sleep on the floor.
We could [C]
talk [D] in circles, [G] no dollar favors, [C] just what is [D] owed or paid.
[Dm] [C] We could make predictions, [G] I know you see the future.
[A] I agree, [Am] we [D] agree, tonight's not [G] happening.
When I got dry as a desert, I just got me.
I was lonely, I was as empty [Am] as a [D]
canteen.
[C] With no [D] anesthetic, [G] you're bound to be [C] sore.
But [G] tonight, I'm drinking, all peaceful and warm.
And just [C] when I got fed up [G] with the gray sky,
[Gm] the sun came out [D] of nowhere like [D] a bomb spot.
[C] And it knocked out the [D] wind, and [E] it bruised me [C] with light.
I felt [G] so grateful for living, [D] just like I feel [G] tonight.
But I know that you feel safer [C] in a group.
You could be anybody, or they could [D] be you.
[C] But tonight, we'll take [D] risks that [G] you can't [C] afford.
You still have bars on your windows, honey, [D] and a hole [G] in your door.
And [C] we could talk in [G] circles around a dirty mirror,
[C] not triples down [D] our throat.
We [C] could make a timeline [G] to last your whole life.
But you [Am] don't know, no [D] one knows [C] what's [D] further up [G] the road.
You gotta wait [Am] and see, gotta wait [D] and [G] see.
Now it's [Am] summertime, [A] summertime.
