[Db] [B]
[E] [A] [B]
[A] [E] Now you [Am] can hear that jukebox [Em] pound but you can barely [A] see inside.
[E] I remember [Am] having fears ago.
[Bm] It's where that [A] girl and I hang.
[E] Why [A] they call it a cafe, [E] well I never [A] understood.
[E] Cause there was no [A] tables on the street.
[B] The coffee tasted like mud.
[Dm] But every night I'd wake up and I'd see the girl.
Every night at five o [C]'clock they'd start to come around.
[F] We'd begin to settle [A] up.
They would knock on [E] town.
[Am] Sometime after midnight [B] with a pocket [Am] full of grain.
[C] Lock the doors and step outside [D] and our day would begin.
[G] Coffee waffles [Am] and [C] bars.
[G] Running over [Am] two [C] stars.
[G] Cruising strongly [Am] [C] without cars.
[Gm] We were gonna take that [Am] town.
Nothing there would knock us [A] down.
That old apple [D] would be ours.
[E] [Am] [B]
[A] [Ab] [E] George [Am] was a lawyer.
In an [B] old Brooks [Am] Brothers suit.
[E] Glen [A] was a farm sign.
[B] He had a pistol [Am] in his [Ab] boot.
[E] Franco [A] was a sculptor.
He [B] looked something [A] like a king.
[E] Chaz [A] did a lot of [B] things.
But none of them were legal.
[Dm] Debbie was a waitress.
And [C] she came all the way from Queens.
[F] Sit around and wonder [A] how she got into those [E] jeans.
Mickey [A] tended bars.
[B] So he always [A] drank for free.
[C] Johnny was a lup.
And [D] he taught everything to me.
And [G] we were [Am] boys [C] in bars.
[G] Red lights, [Am] cues, sharp [C]-ass stars.
[G] Running down [Am] all those [C] lonely hearts.
[Gm] And all that liquid [Am] gold.
And all those lies we [A] told.
All those metals, [D] all those scars.
[G] [E] Last [Am] night I was slept back [B] on those sweet old [Am] disco days.
But you [E] know the memories [A] were clouded [B] through that thick [A] Marlboro haze.
[E] Freezing [Am] outside 54, [B] just hoping [A] he'd pick me.
[E] Skiing [A] down Columbus, [Bm] just like Sean [C] Clubb did.
[Dm] Back before the ticking clock [C] made all of us [F] enslaved.
Back before the search for [A] love could put you in your grave.
[E] I never [Am] trade the days I [B] lost for the years that I [A] have found.
[C] Sometimes late at night [D] I can hear that jukebox pound.
We [G] were [Am] boys [C] in bars.
[G] Shooting [Am] [C]
stars.
[G] [Am] Boys in [C] bars.
[G] And we [Am] were [C] boys in bars.
[G] We were [Am] boys [C] in bars.
We were boys in bars.
[G] Red lights, cues, [Am] sharp [C]-ass stars.
Sharp-ass stars.
[G] [Am] Boys in [C] bars.
We were boys, we were boys.
[G] Running down all [Am] those lonely [C] hearts.
