G                           Am            Em 

Verse 

(G)                         Am            Em 
I think I'm drunk enough to Drive you home now
                         Am        Em    G
I'll keep my mouth kept Shut from under lock and key
                        Am                 Em
That's rusted firm, no lie
G                       Am     Em
'cause all these conversations wind..
G  Am  Em
On and on... [repeat twice]

Chorus

G             Em                             
Drinking champagne from a paper cup
   Bb    C         Em    
Is never quite the same
G             Em   
And every sip's moving through my eyes
   Bb    C     Em    
And up into my brain
             G     Em   
At half past two; about time to leave
           Bb    C                 Em    
'cause the dj's playing rhythm and blues
             G      Em   
A sad-sorry state, stutter step to those slammin' grooves
   Bb    C         Em    
As i'm waiting around for you...

G                           Am            Em [x2]
