SECOND VERSE: (SAME CHORDS)
Now Paul at the bar hes a freind of mine, he gets me my drinks for free
And hes quick with a joke and a light of your smoke but theres some place
that hed rather be
He says bill i beilive this is killing me as the smile ran away from his
face, Well im sure that I could be a movie star,if I could get out of this
place
Now Paul is a real estate novelist who never had time for a wife
And hes talking with Davy whos still in the navy and probably will be for
life
And the waitress is practising politics As the businessmen slowly get stoned
yes they're sharing a drink they call loneliness but its better than
drinking alone
its a pretty good crowd for a saturday And the manager gives me a smile
Cause he knows that its me they've been coming to see To forget about life
for a while
And the piano sounds like a carnival and the microphone smells like a beer
And they sit at the bar and put bread in my jar and say man what are you
doing here?
(Repeat Chorus)
