Intro:
Cadd9Cadd9 G+G (x4)

Verse 1:
       Cadd9Cadd9        G+G
We were drinking like the Irish
   Cadd9Cadd9          G+G
But we were drinking scotch
   Cadd9Cadd9           G+G
Bartender turns on a movie
   A minorAm           D MajorD
Everybody turned to watch
        Cadd9Cadd9        G+G
And every single eye was gleaming
     A minorAm
And he reached the final scene
Cadd9Cadd9       G+G
Well, at least mine did
      Cadd9Cadd9       G+G
Here's lookin' at you, kid

Chorus:
     Cadd9Cadd9 G+G
It's a mad mission
     Cadd9Cadd9      G+G
Under difficult conditions
Cadd9Cadd9       G+G
Not everybody makes it
A minorAm        D MajorD
To the loving cup
     Cadd9Cadd9 G+G
It's a mad mission
    Cadd9Cadd9    G+G
But i got the ambition
Cadd9Cadd9     G+G
Mad, mad mission
Cadd9Cadd9  G+G
Sign me up

Instrumental:
Cadd9Cadd9 G+G (x4)

Verse 2:
         Cadd9Cadd9       G+G
I think i've seen the look before
      Cadd9Cadd9        G+G
Yes it's kind of non-commital
      Cadd9Cadd9       G+G
It says come hither, baby, but then he's
A minorAm          D MajorD
Hard wood to whittle
Cadd9Cadd9              G+G
It says it don't mean a thing,
   A minorAm
but still, somehow it does
             Cadd9Cadd9       G+G
He'd like you to join the club he likes to say
      Cadd9Cadd9           G+G
There's no such thing as love

Chorus:
Cadd9Cadd9 G+G (x8)
     Cadd9Cadd9          G+G
Sometimes you find yourself
Cadd9Cadd9      G+G
Flying low at night
Cadd9Cadd9        G+G
Flying blind and looking for
A minorAm (hold)  D MajorD (hold)
Any sign of light
      Cadd9Cadd9 (hold)
You're cold and scared, and all alone
       A minorAm (hold)
You'd do anything just to make it home
Cadd9Cadd9 G+G (x2)

Chorus:
Cadd9Cadd9 G+G (x3)
Cadd9Cadd9  G+G
Sign me up
Cadd9Cadd9 G+G (x4)
