(BW: Aah! Ha!, Now, Yea! -- Watchin' The Bubbles In My Beer
Well, come in Tommy, give us the low down on it)
[C] Tonight in a bar alone I'm [G] sitting
Apart from the laughter and the [C] cheers
While scenes from the past, rise be-[G] fore me
Just watchin' The Bubbles In My [C] Beer.
A [F] vision of someone who [C] loved me
Brings a [G] lone silent tear to my [C] eye
Oh! I know that my life's been a [G] failure
Just watchin' The Bubbles In My [C] Beer.
(Note. Same chords as for 1st verse)
I'm seeing a road that I've traveled
A road paved with hearthaches and tears
And I'm seeing the past, that I've wasted
While watchin' The Bubbles In My Beer
As I [F] think of the heart that I've [C] broken
And of the golden chances that have passed me [G] by
And the [C] dreams that I made, now are [G] empty
As empty as The Bubbles In My [C] Beer.
