E MajorE
Give me a second, I, I need to get my story straight

My friends are in the bathroom getting higher than the Empire State
  A augmentedA
My lover, he's waiting for me, just across the bar
        FF            BB
My seat's been taken by some sunglasses, asking bout a scar, and
E MajorE
I know I gave it to you months ago
 C# minorC#m
I know you're trying to forget
  A augmentedA
But between the drinks and subtle things
  (Continue With A augmentedA)
The holes in my apologies, you know

I'm trying hard to take it back

So let's raise a cup

'Cause I found someone to carry me home
