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
