Intro:
C G Am F

Verse 1:
C                                   G
Somewhere in a small town there's a bag gettin' packed
Am                                  F
In a bedroom at the far end of a gravel cul de sac
C                                   G
Someone ridin' shotgun there's some Army green fatigues
Am                                  F
On a pin drop quiet drive with a tear in every seat
G              Am      F    G                  Am      F
At that empty airport gate, there's a soldier sayin', "Hey"

Chorus:
C                  G
"Drink one for me, on Friday night
Am                               F
Throw 'em back and laugh and tip the band I like
C                  G
Drink one for me, and remember why
Am                               F
I'm doin' what I'm doin' when you raise 'em high
G             Am          F           C          G   Am   F
While I'm where I need to be, drink one for me"

Verse 2:
C                            G
Somewhere in the static in a half a world away
Am                                          F
There's a tired voice on the phone sayin', "Everything's okay"
C                                 G
"And if that weather holds up go load up that boat of mine
Am                                 F
Head on out to Flat Rock point and drop a couple lines
G            Am       F
The say I'll get home soon, but 'til I do"

Chorus:
C                  G
"Drink one for me, on Friday night
Am                               F
Throw 'em back and laugh and tip the band I like
C                  G
Drink one for me, and remember why
Am                               F
I'm doin' what I'm doin' when you raise 'em high
G             Am          F           C          G   Am   F
While I'm where I need to be, drink one for me"

Bridge:
C                                   G
Somewhere there's a crowded corner downtown bar tonight
Am                                                   F
With a bunch of ice cold amber bottles raised in the neon light

Drink one for me, and remember why
Am                               F
