[Verse 1]
Em B7
I’m in a meat-pack plant by the gutterside
Em B7
A slaughterhouse apartment with a slice of lime
C B7
I’m cruisin’ with the bruisers, boozin’, I’ll be a
Em
suitor, losing my mind
B7
Because there’s nothing to find
Em B7
The fetid stench of bad intentions hangs in the sweat
Em B7
I’m in a sauna hot with drama and I’m tryin’ to forget
C
All the masochistic rapture mis-steps
B7 Em B7
Imminent pleasure’s ready to cut to the bone
[Chorus]
C G
You said “let loose!” But now you’re lost
D Em
While I tied my boots like a tightrope noose
C G
The problem chased the taste of the cause
D B7
While the evidence supports the truth. Is 80 enough proof for you?
Em B7
Here’s to my lady and I’m coming inside
Em B7
Drink to me baby, and what’s left of what’s right
C G
It’s easier to use and lose than never to have used you
B7 Em C
On a fucked up Saturday night.
B7 Em B7
Good times on Front Street
Em B7 Em
On Front Street
[Verse 2]
Em B7
Loose lips sink ships, but captain, will you go down?
Em B7
Float your boat and overboard and hoping to drown
C B7
Tell me what prevented you from coming downtown all alone
Em B7
Because we know you’re not afraid
Em B7
This chastity is Greek to me, the meat is still fresh
Em B7
The gnashing teeth will masticate the bones from the flesh
C B7
Since nobody will tell me where these bastards go, I’ll see for myself
Em B7
I think they might go to hell
[Chorus]
C G
You said “let loose!” But now you’re lost
D Em
While I tied my boots like a tightrope noose
C G
The problem chased the taste of the cause
D B7
While the evidence supports the truth. Is 80 enough proof for you?
Em B7
Here’s to my lady and I’m coming inside
Em B7
Drink to me baby, and what’s left of what’s right
C G
It’s easier to use and lose than never to have used you
B7 Em C
On a fucked up Saturday night.
B7 Em B7
Good times on Front Street
Em B7 Em
On Front Street

C G D B7
... Is 80 enough proof for you?
[Outro]
Em B7
Last call for mortals, better cover your drink
Em B7
Sodom and Gomorrah, let it go down the sink
C C7 B7
Always a good time
Em
On Front Street
