I've heard it said it takes twice the length of an affair for the heart to heal
                                                        B
And if that's the case then I guess in 20 years I'll be sitting in this bar
             E                                                      G#
room still. 'cause you were the one I felt that I was lucky just to have you by
             F#m                                                     A
my side. Now it's ten years gone and I'm sittin' all alone with this bottle for
           E
a place to hide.

bar time is 6:30 and you're still on my mind
B            A
by 8:15 I'll have had a couple in me
    A                       E
and forgotten you were even mine
by 9:43 I'll be regretting my decisions
    C#m
and cursing this city of sin
B
by 10:15 I'll be stinkin' of whiskey
A                   E
and thinking of you again
E                                                       A
Now I've heard it said by many of my friends you were a girl I should leave
E
alone. They said "all you're gonna get is a pocket full of regrets and a
B                          E
broken down rotary phone." Now all I've got are those and 15 "I told you
           G#                          F#m
so's" so I guess I'm the one to blame. Sitting on a stool feeling like a
                         A                         E
broken fool. A tarnished drunkard with a tarnished name.
