Intro: Ebm, C# (Riff x2), Ebm, C# (Riff x2)

Verse:
Ebm
Box speaker talking outta tune

Two for one at the Blue Lagoon
         C# (Riff x2)
Another lost and found
Ebm
Bartender takes another pass

Puts the salt on the rim of another glass
         C# (Riff x2)
Then he sets it down
Ab                          F#
I know every color of every neon sign
Ab                              F# (play this chord once only)
Flashin' out a heartache in the back of my mind

Chorus:
C#
Down at the Lonely Grill
Ab
Got nothing but time to kill
       F#
At the end of every day
C#
I sit in a corner booth
Bbm            B            F#
Do nothing but think of you
        A              B
and the love we threw away
C#
And I guess I always will
Ab                       (Riff x2)
Down at the Lonely Grill

verse 2:
Ebm
Sad eyed waitress called Betty Lynn

Got her order pad and her ball point pen
         C# (Riff x2)
and says what'll it be
         Ebm
I said a tall glass of cold regret

A full order of loneliness
     C# (Riff x2)
Like everyday this week
Ab                              F#
I'll shoulder my pride and I'll drink it down
G#                                F# (play this chord once only)
Another smoke filled evening with no fire to be found

Chorus:
C#
Down at the Lonely Grill
Ab
Got nothing but time to kill
       F#
At the end of every day
C#
I sit in a corner booth
Bbm              B          F#
Do nothing but think of you
         A             B
and the love we threw away
C#
And I guess I always will
Ab                   C#
Down at the Lonely Grill
C#
I sit in a corner booth
Bbm              B          F#
Do nothing but think of you
         A             B
and the love we threw away
C#
And I guess I always will
Ab
Down at the Lonely Grill
