Barstool

G Am G Am G B7 Em C

[Verse 1]
G            Am
Old Man on a Bar Stool
 G        Am
Watching tv
       G           B7        
He got up and came over to sit 
    Em       C
closer to me
        G           Am
He said you look familiar
    G          Am
To someone I knew
      G           B7              
But when we were your age we were 
Em          C
older than you
 G          Am
Jimmy was twenty
    G       Am
and I seventeen
   G             B7          Em  
To us there was nothing but girls
         C
 and machines
 G         Am
Jimmy got married
    G          Am
And I went to war
G               B7           
I still don't know what we were 
    Em       C
doing it for

[Bridge]
              Em         C
And if you'll buy me a drink
  Em        C
A turkey on ice
     G             F          C  
Then I could give you some advice
     D


[Chorus]
           G  Am      C    D
You just stay in the bar
        G   Am      C     D
For as long as you can
Continúa después del anuncio
         Em            B7
Cos' as long as your drinking
      G              F          
Then you've got the world in your 
   C    Am D
hand

[Instrumental]

[Verse 2]
         G           Am
There's no shame in hanging
      G            Am
Your world by a string
      G              B7       
You know there's no harm in not 
    Em         C
thinking a thing
      G                Am    
But trying to find a place for 
       G            Am
yourself in this world
          G               B7      
Is like trying to make a wife of 
    Em      C
an American girl

[Bridge]
            Em         C
If you'll trade me a drink
        Em       C
For a story or two
      G                F           
Then you'll know what you need to 
C   D
do

[Chorus]
           G  Am      C     D
You just stay in the Bar
        G   Am      C       D
For as long as you can
          Em          B7
You know love is for sissies
      G          F          C    
It's wisky that makes you a man
Am D

[Verse 3]
        G           Am
Now the old man got up
      G                    Am
And stumbled out in the street
            G           B7        
He'd been drinking all day and 
       Em           C
left his bar tab with me
   G               Am
I didn't have the money
    G         Am
To cover his bill
       G          B7              
But I found me a man who looked 
    Em           C
like me, younger still and said

[Bridge]
 Em        C
Buy me a drink
          Em         C
And I'll tell you a tale
          G            F          
About the old man who taught me so
  C    D
 well

[Chorus]
Who said
  G  Am      C    D
Stay in the Bar
        G   Am      C    D
For as long as you can
         Em          B7          
Well I know your a friend I can 
G            F             C
tell by the shakes in your hand

You just
  G  Am      C       D
Stay in the Bar
        G   Am      C    D
For as long as you dare
    Em          B7
As long as you tipping
      G            F        
Then you've got a good friend 
        C
somewhere
