Intro: C G Am F
I:
C G
At the place we knew back when
Am
The drinks would flow and fans would spin
F C
Crimson showers sinkin in, through your stained glass eyes
G Am
It almost never seemed quite fair, almost like we weren't even there
F C
For more than two smokes and a round, before the final call would sound
G Am
So, drink 'em up and hold me close, don't give up on what you know
F C
There's seven dollars in my coat, so don't worry anymore.
G Am F
II
Old man Floyd he can't help the temptation
To think of the red headed girl on the bus
He met at the government station, before the war let up
She chased his conscience with her smile
Chased away his past for a while
But it caught up with him in time
To chase away his sweet old mind
So, drink 'em up and hold me near, don't put much into what you hear
There's seven dollars in my coat, so don't you worry anymore.
G Am F
III:
Does it make you sad to sit at home
Looking out at the concrete growing
Through your stained glass eyes out your window every morning
You know there's nothing wrong with that
We all need a place to be when the world is looking back at us
Before it shakes the trees
If I don't leave here too soon, I might not wake up til noon
And if I don't wake up at all, tell the boys I had a ball
Drinking up and side to side, nothing more than a place to hide
There's seven dollars in my coat, so don't you worry anymore.
G Am F on out......
