Chords

[Verse 1]
A                           E
A person does things for no reason

          F#m               D
Because a reason is to survive

   A                            C#m
So since there's no reason to survive

                     D       E
A person should do nothing, oh

        A                    E
But you feel that you should do something

            F#m               D
Because you only have this one life

       A                 C#m
So you talk with the other people

                   D          E
But you never do it right, woah
[Chorus]
          A
So you're ashamed

                           E
On the barroom floor, she's ashamed

                     F#m
She can't take it anymore

                          B7
I'm ashamed 'cause I said something

    D         E         A
Oh, something I did not mean
[Verse 2]
A                                                  E
When a little brother and sister make it with each other

        F#m               D          A
And the family lose their minds, well

          C#m               D         E
Don't you think they have no right? Woah

       A
Because (Ooh)

A                                 E
Little Tom and Jane wanna do something (Ah)

F#m                     D
They only have this one life

   A                      C#m
So they make it with each other

                            D        E
Just to make it through the night, oh
[Chorus]
            A
They're not ashamed

                      E
On the barroom floor, ashamed

                 F#m
Can't take it anymore

                        B7
Ashamed 'cause they did something

    D         E           A
Oh, something they really mean
[Bridge] E F#m B7 D E A [Verse 3]
A
She was older now

                     E
So the memories came flooding back

         F#m                   D        A
Then she threw up all of that cognac

                           C#m
She knew that she loved no other

                              D         E
And she knew that she had the right, woah

    A                                      E
The right to love and to be loved in one's life

F#m                                 D
The right to feel his body hold her tight

  A           C#m
I love him, I love him

                    D
No longer would she fight

                 E
Surrender to the night
[Chorus]
             A
And I am not ashamed

                      E
On the barroom floor, ashamed

                         F#m
I just can't take it anymore, I'm ashamed

                B7
Because I said something

             D        E
Always doing something

         A                          E
Oh, do I mean, I really didn't mean to
[Outro]
F#m  B7
Oh, oh

D  E
Oh
