Tonight I'll Take What I Can Get Acoustic chords by Dashboard Confessional

Guitar chords with lyrics

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
C, G, Am, F, G, C X1


VERSE 1
C         G
I've got my eye on top shelf liquor,
   Am
With taste so smooth it

Hits you quicker.
  F      G    C
But you've only got the well.
  C          G
And I've got an eye for top tier women
   Am
With legs so long they go straight to heaven,
  F       G     C
But this old bunch looks like hell.


CHORUS
  F    C  G  Am  F G  C
But tonight I'll take what I can get.


VERSE 2
C         G
I'd like to hear a great musician
   Am
With strange ideas and grand ambition,
  F         G      C
But this guy, he's got trouble with chords.
  C         G
And I'd like to leave this game a winner
Am
Head held high, the luck of beginners
  F        G        C
But this old losers crawling out on all fours.


CHORUS
  F    C  G  Am  F G  C
But tonight I'll take what I can get.


BRIDGE
   Am
Well this drink will do,
  F
And girl you look all right,
  C             G
And this band is playing like hell tonight.
Am
These dice are loaded
  F
And Lord I am too
C             G
I might be losing but I'm leaving soon.
     Am
With the prettiest girl
  F
To enter this dump,
     C             G
She drank all of the whiskey but she left me the rum
  Am      F     C G  C  (little different than the main chorus)
And tonight I'll take what I can get


VERSE 3
C           G
I've got my sights on brand new beginnings
Am
Brand new starts make saints of sinners
F         G     C
But I'm doomed to live in my past
C            G
Live nude girls says the sign out front,
  Am
But old dead dreams are dancing in front,
  F           G
Of old dead dreamers with washed up luck,
    C
Buying love for cash


CHORUS
   F    C  G  Am  F G  C
Well tonight I'll take what I can get.


VERSE 4
C          G
This old story gets stale and dry,
  Am
No matter how I try and try to
F        G     C
Spin this fable fresh and new
C
You strung me along
    G
Like a tease on prom night
Am
Getting me loose but leaving me uptight
F
Please tell me that
G           C
Some of that love was true.


CHORUS
F    C  G  Am  F G  C
Tonight I'll take what I can get


BRIDGE
Am
Well this drink will do,

And girl you look all right,

And this band is playing like hell tonight.
Am
These dice are loaded
  F
And Lord I am too
C             G
I might be losing but I'm leaving soon.
     Am
With the prettiest girl
  F
To enter this dump,
     C             G
She drank all of the whiskey but she left me the rum
  Am      F     C G  C
And tonight I'll take what I can get.
