(Capo on 1)
Intro.:  |(G) |(C) | x 2
(G)                             (Cadd9)                 (G)
Filthy bottles and old guitars, long distance lovers, with broken hearts
(D)         (Cadd9)           (G)    
Livin' down last night's sins a-gain
(G)                                  (Cadd9)           (G)
Take the stage as the shadows dance, pray they keep on filing in
(D)              (Cadd9)    (G)
(This is my last stand, and good luck
(Chorus)
  (Cadd9)                                         (G)
Good luck to the girls on the side of the stage, boys at the bar makin' minimum wage
(D)             (Cadd9)                       (G)
Every lost soul out there on the inter-state
            (Cadd9)                                   (G)
Well, we'll all be here till the lights burn out, we'll all keep swinging to just strike out
(D)                   (Cadd9)                  (Em)
Tryin' to find heaven, takin' what the devil brings
(D) (Cadd9)            (D)                       (G)       (Cadd9)
Oh, everybody's out here lookin' for the same damn  thing 
(G)                                   (Cadd9)               (G)
Burned down bridges and dead end streets, nobody comes and nobody leaves
(D)            (Cadd9)         (G)
Everybody wants what everybody needs
(G)                            (Cadd9)              (G)
Overstays and fearless nights, standin' tall in the ballroom lights
(D)                 (C)                     (G)
Prayin' that we get higher than we've been be-fore
(Chorus)
     (Cadd9)                                     (G)
Good luck to the girls on the side of the stage, boys at the bar makin' minimum wage
(D)             (Cadd9)              (G)
Every lost soul out there on the inter-state
            (Cadd9)                                   (G)
Well, we'll all be here till the lights burn out, we'll all keep swinging to just strike out
(D)                   (Cadd9)                  (Em)
Tryin' to find heaven, takin' what the devil brings
(D) (Cadd9)            (D)                       (G)       (Cadd9)
Oh, everybody's out here lookin' for the same damn thing
(Bridge)
(Em)   (D)    (Cadd9)                  (G)
No oh, no oh, no one can tell us we're wrong
(Em)   (D)           (Cadd9) (Bm)      (D)
No oh, no oh, I keep singin' all night long
(G)         (Em)           (Cadd9)              (G)
 Pack it up and pay the band,  take the devil from these idle hands
(D)             (Cadd9)          (G)  
 This is my last stand, and good  luck
(Chorus)
      (Cadd9)                                         (G)
Good luck to the girls on the side of the stage, boys at the braum makin' minimum wage
(D)             (Cadd9)              (G)
Every lost soul out there on the inter-state
            (Cadd9)                                   (G)
Well, we'll all be here till the lights burn out, we'll all keep swinging to just strike out
(D)                   (Cadd9)                  (Em)
Tryin' to find heaven, takin' what the devil brings
(D) (Cadd9)            (D)                       (G)       (Cadd9)
Oh, everybody's out here lookin' for the same damn  thing
(Tag)
(D) (Cadd9)              (D)
Oh, everybody's out here lookin' for the same damn thing
