Tom: C
F C
Started off just a random seat
F C
Some old lecture hall
F C
Sat down it was a pleasure to meet you
G
Said, "we'll get through this somehow"
F C
“Would you mind taking notes?
F C
I've got work till three A.M.”
F C
Why you always out so late?
G
Straight A's, I don't understand
F C
And we had every class together
F C
Time and time again
F C
Making dinner while we cram for finals
G
You’d help me understand
F C
Then I turned eighteen and saw for myself
F C
You were working at the campus bar
F C
Little place where you could lose yourself
G
Just get away for a while
F C
Seasons later I was looking for work
F C
What the hell, it's a job
F C
Black shirt said "SECURITY"
G
And everybody answers to Rob
F C
Football dudes and the scientist
F C
It was always pretty chill
F C
Kid’s treat V.I.P like Atlantis
G
A couple dollars will always get you in
F C
Coat check girl, oh so pretty
F C
Please try not to lose your ticket
F C
Washrooms that way, no attendant
G
The cooks always had the best jokes
F C
Servers in the back countin’ change
F C
One more hour ‘til it hits
F C
Bar backs cuttin’ limes and lemons
G
The bartenders ready their tips
F C
And there you were all singled out
F C
Bottle opener on your hip
F C
Had a way with everybody
G
Had ‘em laughing between each sip
F C
Sitting in the Buller building
F C
Across the way to work
F C
We went everywhere together
G
The bodyguard and the beer girl
F C
Then the D.J.’d play some country songs and
F C
Everybody’d sing along
F C
‘til the moment things all went wrong
G
A fight breaks up the whole thing
F C
I was scared the first time it happened
F C
Never fought before
F C
And everybody wants to be a helper
G
It just makes everything worse
F C
I'll never forget your tip jar got swiped
F C
I let you down that time
F C
You laughed and said "It's only money
G
We'll make it up tomorrow night."
F C
Already feels like one of those nights
F C
A lot of wise guys in here
F C
Just know if shit hits the fan
G
I got my eye on the girl with the beer
F C
Then I'd walk you to your car
F C
Make sure the damn thing worked
F C
‘cause we went everywhere together
G
The bodyguard and the beer girl
