G    G


[Verse 1]
          G          
There's a Marlboro Man with horn-rimmed glasses
               F        
Holdin' up the end of the bar
           C
Yeah, he's rubbin' his neck,

drink in his hand, ignoring the band
                      G
I've seen him in this place before


[Verse 2]
        G
She's a fake I.D. with dirty blonde hair
               F
Sippin' on a Moscow Mule
     C
Aah, shirt too low, skirt too high
                                 G
Catchin' the eye of every Hefner   in the room


[Chorus]
                    F                  C
And maybe it's just me or is everybody in here
           G
Just as lonely?
                      F                            C
Or is it just another scene from a corner booth at closin' time
        G
On a Tuesday?


[Verse 3]
          G
There's a cellphone man with his tie on the table
               F
Nothin' in his glass but the rocks
           C
Yeah, he's watchin' the door,

checkin' the time, checkin' the town
                        G
You can almost hear his heart

tick-tock


[Verse 4]
         G
Then the door flies open and the breeze blows
                       F
And then I can see her

Wedding ring, you know that it ain't his
        C
And her lipstick is guilty red,

he pulls her close and they start to dance
         G
And they   fit right in


[Chorus]
                    F                  C
And maybe it's just me or is everybody in here
           G
Just as lonely?
                      F                            C
Or is it just another scene from a corner booth at closin' time
         G
On a Tuesday?


[Chorus]
                F                  C
Maybe it's just me or is everybody in here
           G
Just as lonely?
                      F                            C
Or is it just another scene from a corner booth at closin' time
        G
On a Tuesday?


[Bridge]
         F  C  G 
Heyyyyyyyy     ohhh, yeah
   F C G
ooh


[Outro]
         G
Then the Marlboro man with horn-rimmed glasses
       F
Disappears with the dirty blonde hair
                   C
And the bartender stacks the chairs
             G
And we all goooooo home
