🎸
all weird on them, but to me this sounds 100% perfect
Chords Used (different variations) I'm also not 100% sure what some of the chords are
here they are
The progression of chords in the chorus is super-fast and he changes the chord with
word...trust me, this is accurate, just learn the strumming.

INTRO
<span>C, <span>G, <span>Am, <span>F, <span>G, <span>C X1
VERSE 1
<span>C <span>G
I've got my eye on top shelf liquor,
<span>Am
With taste so smooth it
Hits you quicker.
<span>F <span>G <span>C
But you've only got the well.
<span>C <span>G
And I've got an eye for top tier women
<span>Am
With legs so long they go straight to heaven,
<span>F <span>G <span>C
But this old bunch looks like hell.
CHORUS
<span>F <span>C <span>G <span>Am <span>F <span>G <span>C
But tonight I'll take what I can get.
VERSE 2
<span>C <span>G
I'd like to hear a great musician
<span>Am
With strange ideas and grand ambition,
<span>F <span>G <span>C
But this guy, he's got trouble with chords.
<span>C <span>G
And I'd like to leave this game a winner
<span>Am
Head held high, the luck of beginners
<span>F <span>G <span>C
But this old losers crawling out on all fours.
CHORUS
<span>F <span>C <span>G <span>Am <span>F <span>G <span>C
But tonight I'll take what I can get.
BRIDGE
<span>Am
Well this drink will do,
<span>F
And girl you look all right,
<span>C <span>G
And this band is playing like hell tonight.
<span>Am
These dice are loaded
<span>F
And Lord I am too
<span>C <span>G
I might be losing but I'm leaving soon.
<span>Am
With the prettiest girl
<span>F
To enter this dump,
<span>C <span>G
She drank all of the whiskey but she left me the rum
<span>Am <span>F <span>C <span>G <span>C (little different than the main chorus)
And tonight I'll take what I can get
VERSE 3
<span>C <span>G
I've got my sights on brand new beginnings
<span>Am
Brand new starts make saints of sinners
<span>F <span>G <span>C
But I'm doomed to live in my past
<span>C <span>G
Live nude girls says the sign out front,
<span>Am
But old dead dreams are dancing in front,
<span>F <span>G
Of old dead dreamers with washed up luck,
<span>C
Buying love for cash
CHORUS
<span>F <span>C <span>G <span>Am <span>F <span>G <span>C
Well tonight I'll take what I can get.
VERSE 4
<span>C <span>G
This old story gets stale and dry,
<span>Am
No matter how I try and try to
<span>F <span>G <span>C
Spin this fable fresh and new
<span>C
You strung me along
<span>G
Like a tease on prom night
<span>Am
Getting me loose but leaving me uptight
<span>F
Please tell me that
<span>G <span>C
Some of that love was true.
CHORUS
<span>F <span>C <span>G <span>Am <span>F <span>G <span>C
Tonight I'll take what I can get
BRIDGE
<span>Am
Well this drink will do,
<span>F
And girl you look all right,
<span>C <span>G
And this band is playing like hell tonight.
<span>Am
These dice are loaded
<span>F
And Lord I am too
<span>C <span>G
I might be losing but I'm leaving soon.
<span>Am
With the prettiest girl
<span>F
To enter this dump,
<span>C <span>G
She drank all of the whiskey but she left me the rum
<span>Am <span>F <span>C <span>G <span>C
And tonight I'll take what I can get.
