Hit it...[Bb] [A] This ain't no disco

and it ain't no [A]country club

[A]this L.A.

"All I wanna do is have a little fun before I die" says the

man next to me [D]out of nowhere

Apropos of nothing, he says his name's William but I'm sure he's

Billy, Mac or [D]Buddy

he's [E]plain ugly to me, and I

wonder if he's ever had a [D]day of fun in his life

We are drinking beer at noon on a Tuesday

in a bar that faces a giant [D]car wash

The good people of the world are washing their cars

on their lunch break, [D]as best as they can in skirts and suits

[A]They drive their shiny Datsuns and Buicks

[A]back to the phone company and the record store

[A]Well they're nothing like Bily and me,

{soc}

cause all I wanna [E]do is have some fun,

I've got a [C]feeling that I'm not the [D]only one,

all I wanna [E]do is have some fun,

I've got a [C]feeling that I'm not the [D]only one

all I wanna [E]do is have some fun,

until the [C]sun comes up over [D] Santa Monica boule[E]vard

[D]

{eoc}

I like a good beer buzz early in the morning

and Billy likes to peel the labels from his [D]bottle of Bud

and shred them on the bar, then he lights every match in an oversized pack

letting each one [D]burn down to his

thick fingers before blowing and cursing them out

[D]

[A]and he's watching the Buds as they spin on the floor,

[A]a happy couple enters the bar dangerously close,

[A]the bartender looks up from his want ads

{comment:Chorus}

[A]otherwise the bar is ours

[A]the day and thee night and the car wash too

[A]the matches and the Buds and the clean and dirty cars

[A]the sun and the moon

{comment:Chorus}

{comment:continue chorus, sometimes replace -Ive got a feeling Im not the only one-}

{comment:with -I want to tell you the party has just begun-}

{comment:then fade-slowdown on the E-C-D pattern, and end on Bb A}
