Standard (EADGBE)

I've heard it said it takes twice the length of an affair for the heart to heal

And if that's the case then I guess in 20 years I'll be sitting in this bar

room still. 'cause you were the one I felt that I was lucky just to have you by

my side. Now it's ten years gone and I'm sittin' all alone with this bottle for

a place to hide.

(chorus)

bar time is 6:30 and you're still on my mind

by 8:15 I'll have had a couple in me

and forgotten you were even mine

by 9:43 I'll be regretting my decisions

and cursing this city of sin

by 10:15 I'll be stinkin' of whiskey

and thinking of you again

Now I've heard it said by many of my friends you were a girl I should leave

alone. They said "all you're gonna get is a pocket full of regrets and a

broken down rotary phone." Now all I've got are those and 15 "I told you

so's" so I guess I'm the one to blame. Sitting on a stool feeling like a

broken fool. A tarnished drunkard with a tarnished name.

(chorus)
