[VERSE 1:]
Listen up and I'll [C]tell you what you'll [G]do [D] [G]
Forget about [C]music[D] and alcohol [G]too
For[C]get about your baby, we got [Am]other work for [D]you

There's [G]one less [C]cause in the [D]world to be leaving [G]for
[VERSE 2:]
It was back in [C]'39 when [D]I was one year [G]old
Sitting by the [C]backyard fence and the [D]world had turned so [G]cold
[C]Drink yer glasses [Am]empty now, was [D]all that they were [G]told
Drink yer glasses [A]boys and girls, it's [D]time to hit the [G]sky
A D C ~ Am
To the tune of thunder, there's no time to wonder why
[VERSE 3:]
We'd [G]love to take life [C]over, that is [G]plain[D] [G]
Forget about [C]sorrow,[D] forget about [G]pain
[C]Watch a John Wayne movie to re[Am]mind us once a[D]gain
Better [G]drink yer glasses [C]empty now, it's [D]time to hit the [Em]line
You got [G]one less [C]cause in the [D]world to be leaving [G]for
Drink yer glasses [A]girls and boys, it's [D]time to hit the [G]sky
A D C ~ Am
To the tune of thunder, there's a tear in every eye
[VERSE 4:]
I'd like to take things [C]one at a [G]time [D] [G]
Forget about [C]reason,[D] forget about [G]rhyme
[C]Beg, steal, or borrow you got a[Am]nother hill to [D]climb
So [G]drink yer glasses [C]empty now, it's [D]time to hit the [Em]road
There's [G]one less [C]cause in the [D]world to be leaving [G]for
Drink yer glasses [A]girls and boys, it's [D]time to hit the [G]sky
A D C ~ Am
To the tune of thunder, there's no time to wonder why
[VERSE 5:]
We'd like to take life [C]over a[G]gain [D] [G]
When time of [C]war had passed a[D]way into the [G]rain
And [C]watch a John Wayne movie to re[Am]mind us of the [D]plains
Just [G]drink yer glasses [C]empty now, it's [D]time to rise and [Em]shine
There's [G]one less [C]cause in the [D]world to be leaving [G]for
