A                    E
Somewhere between drunkenness and chivalry
Bm                       D
I hold the door open and let her pass through
A                      E
She says thanks to me, in a British accent
Bm                       D
And I try to answer her in the same voice
A                       E
She laughs at me, says "What was that supposed to be?"
Bm                     D                                 E
I say, "I'm sorry, I'm from a different part of the country"

She says


[Chorus]
 A        D/F#  F#m  Bm
"Come on, baby, try again
A        D/F#  F#m  Bm
Come on, baby, try again"


[Instrumental]
A E Bm D  x2


[Verse 2]
A                 E
Somewhere between drunkenness and sincerity
Bm                        D
I smile at her for just a little too long
A                        E
Charlie's drinking wine, Judy's laughing at him
Bm                             D
She says "I forget that you're such a fancy guy"
A                E
He tips his hat, says "M'lady, do you come here often?"
Bm                     D                           E
I swear I've seen them do this one a hundred times before


[Chorus]
A        D/F#  F#m  Bm
Come on, baby, try again
A        D/F#  F#m  Bm
Come on, baby, try again


[Instrumental]
A E Bm D  x2


[Verse 3]
A                 E
Somewhere between drunkenness and charity
Bm                       D
She puts her hand on the sleeve of my coat
A
She says "I've missed this"
  E
I say, "I know, I've missed you, too"
Bm                       D
She says "I was actually talking about your coat"
A
She makes me laugh
E
Oh, how she makes me laugh
Bm                               D                    E
I just let my head sink down and sing some deep songs


[Chorus]
A        D/F#  F#m  Bm
Come on, baby, try again
A        D/F#  F#m  Bm
Come on, baby, try again


[Instrumental]
A E Bm D  x2


[Verse 4]
A                 E
Somewhere between drunkenness and jealousy
Bm                     D
I watch her talking to some old friend
A                  E
What a reunion, he recognised her across the room
Bm                         D
How many years could there be to catch up on?
A                     E
And somewhere between drunkenness and honesty
Bm                    D                                 E
I make a silent toast to the things that I do and don't miss


[Outro]
A        D/F#  F#m  Bm
Come on, baby, try again
A        D/F#  F#m  Bm
Come on, baby, try again
A        D/F#  F#m  Bm
Come on, baby, try again
A        D/F#  F#m  Bm
Come on, baby, try again
