Barkeep another Mekong please. Yes of course you can keep the change.

Am                          G              C
New glass here for this new friend of mine. Forgive me I forgot your

Well is it true it's always happy hour here?

F                        G           
And if it is I'd like to stay a while.

Am         G             F                 G             Am
Well as cliche as it may sound I'd like to raise another round.

And if your bottle's empty help yourself to mine.

eyes she'll break your heart. We came all the way from Taipei today.

      C                                F
Still Bangkok's pissin' rain and we're goin' blind again and I haven't

seen my girl for fifteen thousand miles.
