[Intro]
Cadd9 Em Em9 x2

[Verse 1]
C Em Em9 C
Closing time echos through an empty room
C Em Em9 C
Seconds feels like years and years across my aching soul.
C Em Em9 C
Another night ends up on the same old bar stool.
C Em Em9 Cadd9 D C
They say I’m young, so why do I feel so damn old… It’s getting old.

[Verse 2]
C Em Em9 C
The same old crowd comes in to hear the same old songs.
C Em Em9 C
Trying to escape the life that they are trapped into.
C Em Em9 C
They sing about the last chance that is dead and gone.
Cadd9 Em Em9 Cadd9 D
And the simple life that they desire to go back home to...go back home to.

[Chorus]
Em D
This life I live is what I give each time I play a song
C Cadd9 D
After ten long years and last call beers it’s time to move along.
Em Em9 D
Every night get up on that stage, I know there’s something more
Am D C Cadd9 Em Em9 C Cadd9 Em
Than this life, of a bar room troubadour.
Em9

[Instrumental]
C Em Em9 C Em Em9

[Verse 3]
C Em Em9 C
Soon enough I know that I will change my ways
Cadd9 Em Em9 C
And make a last call to this night I never thought would end.
Cadd9 Em Em9 C
One more neon light burns in smoky haze.
Cadd9 Em Em9 C Cadd9 D
Shining on the superstars who never learned to rise....they'll never rise

[Chorus]
Em D
This life I live is what I give each time I play a song
C Cadd9 D
After ten long years and last call beers it’s time to move along.
Em Em9 D
Every night get up on that stage, I know there’s something more
Am D C Cadd9 Em Em9 C
Than this life, of a bar room troubadour. Bar room troubadour
Cadd9 Em Em9
Bar room troubadour
Am D Em
Than this life of bar room troubadour
