[Intro]
A

[Verse 1]
         A
Shots of Jack Daniel's
            E
You offer a smile

And then you slip through my arms
                    A
And disappear for a while

The last time I saw you
                        E
You were drunk on cheap wine

And though another might love you
                    A
For tonight, you're mine


[Pre-Chorus]
                      D
And you're dancing on tables
               A
To some shitty song
                             E
And though I can't stand the band
               A
I still mumble along


[Chorus]
                      D
For the first time in years
                  A
I kinda half feel alright
                    E
And I know it ain't love
                     A
But it'll do for the night


[Instrumental]
D  A  E  A (x2)


[Verse 2]
A
And you tell me you're wasted
                               E
And that your hair smells like rain

And with your voice cracking softly
                   A
I hope you tell it again

The owner screams last call
                      E
But he and I we're old friends

So while everyone's leaving
                             A
I think we'll stay 'till the end


[Pre-Chorus]
                      D
Thanks to cocaine and whiskey
                    A
We'll be here 'till dawn
             E
Laughing and dancing
                 A
After everyone's gone


[Chorus]
                      D
For the first time in years
                  A
I kinda half feel alright
                    E
And I know it ain't love
                     A
But it'll do for the night
                    E
And I know it ain't love
                     A    E   A
But it'll do for the night
