NOTE: There's really not an easy way to play this song, so here are the chords. Even
using a conviently-placed capo, you end up playing some awkward chords.
INTRO: Bb
The [Bb]city down below us, [Eb]bridges strung like pearls
The [F]glistenin' of your eyes as an[Bb]other year unfurls
[Bb]Here I am [Bb7]sayin' those things [Eb]that I say now and [Ebm]then
But it's the [Bb]champagne [F]talkin', I'll be myself tomorrow a[Bb]gain
[Bb]Another Super Sunday [Eb]gathering good friends
Gals [F]gigglin' in the kitchen, guys [Bb]gamblin' in the den
[Bb]Maybe we ough[Bb7]ta do what we [Eb]should've way back [Ebm]when
But it's the [Bb]Bud Lite [F]talkin', I'll be a lightweight tomorrow [Bb]again

[Bb]I can smell a big Purdue [Eb]roastin' in the oven
[F]Givin' special thanks again to [Bb]you for your good lovin'
[Bb]I should know by [Bb7]now that you're the [Eb]best that I can [Ebm]get

(KEY CHANGE)
