Intro G Am G Am G Am C D

G                            Am
we were drinking colorado bulldogs
G                  Am
when inspiration struck
G                   Am C
and we knew it was high time
C                        D
for us to change our own luck

G                               Am
we cracked a couple coca colas open
G                                  Am
mixed them up with vodka and some coffee liqueur
G                                    Am
poured in some cold milk, raised our glasses high to old friends
C                   D
my love for you is 98 percent pure.

        C                G
but the 2 percent that remains
C                            D
has fried the circuits in my brain.


G                    Am
I got out my smoking jacket
G                                 Am
you put on some fishnets and your smart black beret,
G                            Am
we cut quite a figure in the mirror
C                       D
and then we were on our way.

G                       Am
Oh would that you would kiss me
G                       A
with the kisses of your mouth.
G                                Am
Cause your mouth is sweeter than wine and has
C                                   D
a more complicated history than the american south

C                      G
As the evening took us in
C                                           D
you could've popped the tension with a safety pin.

G                          Am
we went down to pete brown chevrolet,
G                        Am
cause pete brown satisfy all your new car needs.
G                       Am
we were nicely oiled by then
C                                    D
our internal transponders picking up satellite feeds

G                      Am
from well worn ancient places.
G                         Am
our eager young sales rep handed us the keys
G                            Am
we drove about 3 quarters of a mile,
C                              D
all that's left for us now are moments like these.

C                                G
we parked behind the high school away from the light
C                                    D
and the flames climbed high into the night...
