Key:
G/B I hang my head down on Hollywood
C/G G/B 'Cause either way up or down it's just stars
G And I'm making my way down to Cherokee
D To get drunk in a bar [Pre-Chorus 1]
C D And I know my friends, they worry about me
G D Em I can see it written on their face
D Despite anything that I said before
C D G The bar is a beautiful place [Chorus]
D Em D C Dsus4 D G Sha na na na na, sha la la la, sha la la la
D Em D C Dsus4 D G Sha na na na na, sha la la la, sha la la la [Bridge 1]
A A/A# Bm A I got a cold in my heart that the doctor can't feel
G He said "Go get you a beer"
G But they don't let the sunshine come in here
Continues after the ad
D C D C Sha la. sha la la la [Verse 2]
G Where the hookers and thieves and the junkies play
C G It's a circus 'round here for sure
G And I worry about how I'm fitting in
D If I only had her [Pre-Chorus 1]
C D And I know my friends, they worry about me
G D Em I can see it written on their face
D Despite anything that I said before
C D G The bar is a beautiful place [Chorus]
D Em D C Dsus4 D G Sha na na na na, sha la la la, sha la la la
D Em D C Dsus4 D G Sha na na na na, sha la la la, sha la la la [Bridge 2]
A A/A# Bm A Ain't it strange, I see your face in the window of a store
G Holding me back from throwing my bottles out at the cars
D C D C Sha la. sha la la la [Verse 3]
G So hey there, Miss Samuels
C G Hey Laura, I'm thinking of you
G Would you take an old drunk as-is
D If he was sweet to you [Pre-Chorus 2]
C D And tomorrow, you'll probably give up on me
G D Em I won't blame you, hell I'll celebrate
D 'Cause despite anything you may have ever said to me
C D G The bar is a beautiful place [Chorus]
D Em D C Dsus4 D G Sha na na na na, sha la la la, sha la la la
D Em D C Dsus4 D G Sha na na na na, sha la la la, sha la la la
