Verse 1:
E minorEm A augmentedA D MajorD F#F#
Friday night, the open window breathes life
A augmentedA
And I detect New Amsterdam upon its breath
E minor 7Em7
It’s laughing uninhibited
A augmentedA
I hear it's clumsy footsteps on the pavement, stumbling to bed
E minorEm A augmentedA F#F# D MajorD
Friday night, may I suggest the cooking wine?
E minorEm
It's salty in a tasteless way and young in age
A augmentedA
It pairs well with the mood today
D MajorD D7D7
So pucker up and take a drink now quickly
Chorus:
D MajorD E minorEm
Oh what fun it is, laughing at nothing
A augmentedA D MajorD D7D7
By this age we all have it down
B7B7 E minorEm
A augmentedA half full glass spills so easily
A augmentedA D MajorD
But fear not, there's always next round
(funky instrumental)
Verse 2:
E minorEm A augmentedA Dm7Dm7
Friday night, tired neon slithers through a sign
A augmentedA
It stalks the wanderers of the night within plain sight
E minorEm A augmentedA
And offers them a juicy bite of fruit aged long enough to be a very special kind of ripe
E minor 7Em7
And in those bites you'll be amused
A augmentedA
Your lips will smack until they bruise
Dm7Dm7
Your appetite will be profuse
Gmaj7Gmaj7
Your tongue will clean your dishes too
E minorEm
And when your make-out session ends
A augmentedA
The next one will quickly begin
D MajorD
But this time from the other end
D7D7
As bile kisses your inner lips
Chorus:
Dmaj7Dmaj7 E minorEm
Oh what fun it is, laughing at nothing
A augmentedA D MajorD D7D7
By this age we all have it down
B7B7 E minorEm
A augmentedA half full glass spills so easily
A7A7 D MajorD
But fear not, there's always next round
