[Intro] B F#7 B E7 B [Verse 1]
                B
You walk in the room
The folks are all there
                B
With glasses in hand
But you can't take the band
                      F#7
So you head for the bar
The barman's well stocked
                      F#7
He knows where you're at
He offers a drink
                           B
But you can't take none of that

        E7                 B
(No you can't take none of that)
[Chorus]
     C#m7   Dm7    D#m7
Everybody's having fun

              G#m7
So why be the one

                  C#m7
Who's out in the cold?

         Ddim7
It's not good enough

           B             G#7
You made a deal with yourself

               C#7                      F#7
You said you'd never never take another drop

               B                 G#7
Your craving's big, your liver's shot

             C#7                    F#7
You'd give a million for a solitary drop
[Verse 2]
                    B
You take your first belt
It tastes like pure hell
               B
The second one drops
Intentions are shot
                            F#7
Well you think you might as well
You take another sip
                  F#7
You get to likin' it
The music sounds hip
                    B
So you head for the floor

        E7              B
(So you head for the floor)
[Bridge]
Bm
   Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah

              Bm7                    E7
Well you step out on the dance floor

        Bm7                      E7
And you grab at your boss's wife

            Bm7                       E7
You've been longing to hold her close

        Bm7                        E7
For the whole of your working life

                    C#m7
And the band played on
C#m7 B C#m7 B C#m7 B C#m7 G#7 F#7
    Bm
Hey! Move your ass

          Bm7                    E7
Well your hostess is lookin' mad

        Bm7                   E7
As your hands start to wander

         Bm7                       E7
And your boss is gonna get you now

           Bm7                    E7
He's gonna put you six feet under

        F#7
You get walked through the door
And your feet don't touch the floor
       E7
You're never gonna see 'em no more
[Instrumental] Bm F#7 E7 [Verse 3]
    F#7            B
The dawn starts to break
Your head's a big ache
                B
You're lyin' in bed
You're back from the dead
                          F#7
And your mouth feels like old leather
Old leather
               B
Never do it again

        E7             B
(You'll never do it again)
[Chorus]
C#m7 Dm7     D#m7   D#m7
Everyone was havin' fun

                 G#m7
But you were the one

                   C#m7
Kicked out in the cold

    Ddim7
You slept in your clothes

            B
You let 'em down

            G#7
Down at the club

              C#7                         F#7
You know your conscience got to take the rub

             B
Your boss is sore

                G#7
You've had your chance

           C#7                       F#7
He says he never wants to see you again

                       B
Don't wanna see you again

             E7         B
(Don't wanna see you again)
[Outro]
                  B
You've got to dry out
The boys have found out
                    B
It's the end of the line
But it's martini time
                    F#7
So you head for the bar...
