  			A                      D
Could be holding you tonight

Could be doing wrong or doing right

E                               A
I think I'll just stay here and drink

A                                      D
Hey, putting you down won't square the deal
D                          A
A least you'll know what I feel

That loud jukebox playing in my ear

I think I'll just stay here and drink
