[Ab] Now I'm just a [Bbm] bartender, [Cm] [Db] I don't like [Bbm] my work, [Eb] but I don't mind the money at [Ab] all.
[Eb]
[Ab] I see lots of sad faces, [Db] lots of [Bbm] bad faces, [Eb] of folks with their backs to [Ab] the wall.
[Eb] [Fm]
[G] I [Ab] need four walls around me [Db] to hold [Bbm] my head.
[Eb] Keep me from going, oh [Ab] Lord, astray.
[Eb] [Fm]
[G] I [Ab] need a hunky talking jell [Db] to hold [Bbm] me tight.
[Eb] She'll help keep me from slipping [Ab] away.
[Eb] [Fm]
[G] [Ab] I can laugh at your smokes, [Db] I can laugh at [Bbm] your jokes.
[Eb] I can watch you fall down on [Ab] your knees.
[Eb]
[G] [Ab] I can close down this bar, [Db] go and gas up my [Bbm] whole car.
Come [Eb] I could back up, Lord, and bow in [Ab] my knees.
[Eb] [G]
I [Ab] still need four walls around me [Db] to hold [Bbm] my life.
[Eb] Keep me from going, [Ab] oh Lord, astray.
[Eb] [G]
I [Ab] need a hunky talking jell [Db] to hold [Bbm] me tight.

[Ab] [E]
Now the [A] smoke fills the air [D] in this hunky [Bm] talk bar.
[E] And I'm thinking about where I'd rather [A] be.
[E]
[A] But I've earned all the riches, [D] I sank [A] all [Bm] the ships.
Now [Dbm] I'm stranded, [E] Lord, at the edge of [A] the sea.
I [E] [Gbm]
[A] still need four walls around me [D] to hold [Bm] my life.
[E] Keep me from going, oh [A] Lord, astray.
[E] [E] I need [A] a hunky talking jell to [D] hold [Bm] me tight.
[E] And keep me from slipping [A] [D] away.
