Recorded by Brian Keane
Album: Coming Home (2014)
(Capo on 3)
Intro.: (D)
It (D)sure is good to see you, it's (G)been a long, long (D)while
Must been (A)6 or 7 years now since (Bm)I last saw you (D)smile
And now there's gray hair at my temples, and (D/F#)there's (G)new lines on your (Bm)face
But (G)under (D)bar lights, (A)we still look the (D)same ---
The (D)last time that I saw you, there was a (G)hardness in your (D)eyes
And our (A)warm hellos had given way to (Bm)half-hearted good-(D)byes
I said I never care to see you while the (G)sun was in my (Bm)eyes
But (G)under (D)bar lights, I (A)can't remember why (D)
(Chorus)
Under (G)bar lights, it's only good to (D)see you
And we can (A)laugh again and have a couple beers (Bm)
(D)(D/F#)Under (G)bar lights, the past is oh so (Bm)simple (G)
And all them (D)scrapes and scars, (A)they just disap-(D)pear
So we (D)talk about the old days, all the (G)friends along the (D)way
They stood (A)close when things were easy, but in (Bm)hard times turned a-(A/C#)way
You and (D)me we stuck to-(D/F#)gether, it was (G)all that we could (Bm)do
And (G)under (D)bar lights, it's (A)like we made it (D)through
(Chorus)
Under (G)bar lights, it's only good to (D)see you
And we can (A)laugh again and have a couple beers (Bm)
(D)(D/F#)Under (G)bar lights, the past is oh so (Bm)simple (G)
And all them (D)scrapes and scars, (A)they just disap-(D)pear
Solo: |(G) |(Bm)(G)|(D)(A)|(D)
(Bridge)
All the (A)good times and the laughter, they come (G)floating back a-(D)gain
And it (A)gets tough to remember something (G)got us (A/F#)in the (Em)end ---
Now the (D)chairs are on the tables and they're (G)sweeping up the place (D)
And we've (A)sat and talked for hours but now there (Bm)ain't much more to (A/C#)say
When they (D)finally turn the lights up, (D/F#) the (G)good times start to (Bm)fade (G)
They're only (D)bar lights, they (A)can't bring back those (Bm) days
(Tag)
Oh, (C) there're only (D)bar lights, and (A)we ain't gonna (D)change
