CAPO 3!

Intro: A E D A E D


Verse1:
      A             E              D
 This bar has been my home away from her

 A          E             A   E
 Used to be, she was missing me

 A                E      D
 Now she's moving in with her best friend

            A           E                 A   E
 And I'm the only one who wants what used to be

 A                E            D
 I'm here because today I lost it all

 A               E               A   E
 I didn't want to drink at home alone

 A             E    D                         A
 I just can't believe all my hopes and dreams are falling

      E         A   E
Like a row of dominoes


Chorus1:
              A              E
 I thought the man behind the bar

     D            E
 Had heard it all before

 A                F#m              E
 My story must have caught him by surprise

              F#m          E
 Cause when he handed me my double

          D               A
 There were tears in his eyes

     D                   A
 You know you're in trouble

         E              A E D
 When the bartender cries


Verse2:
  
 He said, "Last night you swore you'd never drink again"
 I said, "Next time, I'm really gonna try
 So if she ever calls for me
 Oh, you can finally tell her, "He ain't here"
 And it won't be a lie


Chorus2:
       
 I asked the man behind the bar
 What he'd been crying for
 He said, "That bottle used to be a friend of mine
 Now I've stopped drinking doubles
 But I pour them all of the time
 Son, you know you're in trouble
 When the bartender cries"


Bridge:
 D               E              A          F#m    D
 As I saw my own reflection staring back at me, I knew

            D          E        (pause)
 Every single word he said was true


Chorus3:
 (no chord)        A             E
 Well, I told the man behind the bar

          D               E      A 
 I thought I'd seen it all before

              F#m            E
 Till I saw the sadness in his eyes

            F#m              E
 That's when I put down my double

     D              A
 And said my last goodbyes

               D              A
 'Cause you know you're in trouble

          E             F#m
 When the bartender cries

       D                 A      E
 Oh, you know you're in trouble

                       A E D       A
 When the bartender cries
