[CAPO I]
INTRO: A C#m D E (all x2)
[VERSE 1]
A C#m
It's happy hour again
D E
I think I might be happy, If I wasn't out with them
A C#m
And they're happy, it's a lovely place to be
D E A
Happy that the fire's real, the barman is a she.
A A
Where the haircuts smile, and the meaning of style
A E
Is a night out with the boss
A A
Where you win or you lose, and it's them who choose
A E
And if you don't win then you've lost
[CHORUS]
(N.C.) A
What a good place to be.
C#m
Don't believe her
D
'Cause they speak a different language
E A
And it's never really happened to me
(It's happy hour again)
C#m D
Don't believe her, oh no
E A
'Cause it's never been happy for me
(It's happy hour again)
C#m D E
No -oh wo - oah, wo - o - oah
[VERSE 2]
A C#m
It's another night out with the boss
D E
Following in footsteps overgrown by moss
A C#m
And he tells me that women grow on trees
D E A
And if you catch them right they will land upon their kne-ee-es
A
Where they open all their wallets
A
And they close all their minds
A E
And they love to buy you all a drink
A
And as we ask all the questions
A
And you take all your clothes off
A E
Go back to the kitchen sink
[CHORUS]
(N.C.) A
What a good place to be.
C#m
Don't believe her
D
'Cause they speak a different language
E A
And it's never really happened to me
(It's happy hour again)
C#m D
Don't believe her, oh no
E A
'Cause it's never been happy for me
(It's happy hour again)
C#m D E
No-oh wo - oah, wo - o - oah
[INSTRUMENTAL over: A A A E x2]
[CHORUS]
(N.C.) A
What a good place to be.
C#m
Don't believe her
D
'Cause they speak a different language
E A
And it's never really happened to me
C#m D
Don't believe her, oh no
E A
'Cause it's never been happy for me
(It's happy hour again)
C#m
Don't believe her
D E
Don't believe her,
(its happy hour again)
A C#m D E
Do -o- on't believe her
A C#m D E
It's happy hour again, and again, and again
A C#m D E
It's happy hour again, and again, and again
A C#m D E
It's happy hour again, and again, and again
A
It's happy hour again
