[C] [G]
[C] I'm sipping Florida Canyon lime juice, it's 3 [G] a.m.

[C] The radio's playing [G] super junk and the friends of Dean Martinez.
[D] [C]
[G]
[C] Midnight with bike tire, quacking the [G] pothole,
[C] milling humans, [G] shivering energy glow.
[C] Fusing the [Gm] spaces between them with [G] barthrob face and laughter.
[D] [G]
If this [Em] were the last night [G] of the world, what [Em] would I do?

What would [Em] I do?
If it was [G] different, [C] unless it was champagne
[G] with you.

[G]
[C] I've seen the [G] flame of hope among the hopeless, and that [C] was truly the biggest [G] heartbreak of all.
[C] That was the straw that [G] broke me open.
