[E] [N] Hello Bacchane TV Austin, I'm Katie and we're here today with Bowling for Soup.
How's it going?
It's going good.
It's going good.
Interestingly enough, it's more of a patio TV today.
Yeah.
Welcome to the patio.
It's good to be here.
It's nice and colorful and humid.
What are you going to play for us today?
We're going to play a song called Almost.
Alright, take it away guys.
One, two,
[B] [Gb]
[Abm] [E]
[B] [Gb]
[Abm] three.
[E]
I almost got [Gb] drunk at school at fourteen
[Abm] Where I almost made out [E] with the homecoming queen
[Bm] Who almost went [Gb] on to be Miss [Ab] Texas
The thoughts to a [E] slut with much bigger breasts
I [B] almost dropped [Gb] out and moved to L.A.
[Abm] Where I was almost [E] famous for almost a day
And [B] I [Gb] almost
[Abm] had you
But [E] I guess that doesn't cut [B] it
[Gb] I almost loved [Ab] you
[E] I almost wish you would have loved [B] me too
[Gb]
[Abm] [E]
[B] I almost held [Gb] up a grocery store
[Ab] Where I almost did [E] five years and then seven more
[B] Cause I almost got [Gb] popped for a fight with the thug
[Ab] Cause he almost made [E] off with a bunch of the drugs
That I [B] almost got [Gb] hooked on cause you went away
[Ab] And I wish I would have had [E] the nerve to ask you to stay
And [B] I [Gb] almost
[Abm] had you
[E] But I guess that doesn't cut [B] it
I [Gb] almost had [Ab] you
[E] And I didn't even know [Abm] it, you kept me guessing
[Gb] And now I'm [E] destined to spend my time [Em] missing you
I almost wish you would have [D] loved [B] me too
[Gb] [Abm] [E]
[Gb] A year ago thinking [E] about all the things I could have done
I'm [Gb] gonna need a forklift [E] cause all the baggage [B] weighs [Ebm] a ton
I know [Ab] we had odd [E] problems, I can't remember [Em] one
[Abm] [Bb] I
[Bm]
almost forgot [Gb] to say something [Abm] else
And if I can't [E] fit it in I'll keep it all to myself
[Bm] I almost wrote a [Gb] song about you [Abm] today
But I tore it all [E] up and then I threw it away
[B] And I [Gb] almost [Abm] had you
But [E] I guess that doesn't cut [B] it
I [Gb] almost [Ab] had you
[E] And I didn't even [Ab] know it, you kept me [Gb] guessing
And now I'm [E] destined to spend my time missing [Em] you
[B] [Gb] I almost had [Abm] you
[E]
[B] I [Gb] almost had [Abm] you
I [E] almost had [B] you
I almost had you
And I almost [Gb] had [Abm] you
[E] I almost wish you would have loved [Em] me too
I almost wish you would have loved [B] me too
[Gb] I [Abm]
[E] [B] [Bm]
[Gb] [E]

[N] thought you did very well on that one
You did very good yourself
Thank you, thank you
You did awesome watching us play that song
I know, I don't need, y'all don't even need me right now
Well I wouldn't say we don't need you
We're glad to have you, I think you compliment the package
Oh well thank you guys
So this is definitely not your first time in Austin
Y'all come here probably like once or twice a year, correct?
We do, yeah, we tend to make it here like you said once or twice a year, we like it
And what are some of your favorite places to go when y'all come out here?
We like to park over by a bar called Aussies and go in there and go nuts
You can't, you can never top the Kirby Lane Diner
We do love the Kirby Lane Diner And uh
Thunder Cloud Subs
We like all of the hot spots as you can tell We're just
We are such hipsters
We really are, seriously
You can tell by the tight pants, well we're not wearing tight pants
But if we were
It's our 10 speeds and our sunglasses that you can tell that by
I don't even know what that means, just to be honest, I have no idea Completely confused
So outside of being here in Austin, what can we see from y'all in the next coming months?
Well we're just finishing up this leg of the US tour
So we're gonna have a little bit of down time, a few fly shows for the next couple of months
And then be back on the road in the US August to September for a few weeks
And then over to the UK in October
And then take a little bit of time off for a nice winter's nap
Sounds great, hibernation
Yeah that's right, that's what we do
