G - Bm - C - D (2x)
G Bm C D
1. It‘s happy hour again, I think I might be happy if
I wasn‘t out with them,
G Bm
and they‘re
happy, it‘s a lovely place to be,
C D G
happy that
the fire‘s real, the barman is a she.
G
Where the
haircuts smile, and the meaning of style
D
is a night out with
the boss,
G
where you
win or you lose, and it‘s them who choose,
D
and if you don‘t win,
then you‘ve lost.

What a good place to be, don‘t believe her,
C
‘cause they speak a
different language,
D G
and it‘s never really happened to me.
Bm C
Don‘t believe her, oh no,
D G Bm C
- D
‘cause it‘s never been happy for me, oh, woah, oh.
G Bm
2. It‘s another night out with the boss,
C D
following in footsteps overgrown by moss,
G Bm
and he tells me that women grow on trees,
C
D - G
and if you catch them right, they will land upon their
knees.
G
Where they
open all their wallets, and they close all their minds,
D
and they love to buy
you all a drink,
G
and as we ask all the questions,
D
and you take all your clothes off, go back to the kitchen
sink.
