The door was open I was seething 
C                                              F 
Your mother burst in it was freezing 
C                                        G             C 
She said it looks like it’s trying to rain 
C                             G 
I was lost I felt sea sick 
C                                           F 
You convinced me that he’d left 
C                                               G                     C 
You said keep talking but don’t use any names 
F 
I scolded your driver and your brother 
                                                                                              C 
We are old enough to know how long you’ve been hooked 
F 
And we’ve all been through the war 
And each time you score 
                                                                              C  G 
Someone gets hauled and handcuffed and booked 

C                                       G 
It felt like four in the morning 
C                                       F 
What sounded like fire works 
C                               G              C 
Turned out to be just what it was 
C                                            G 
The stars looked like diamonds 
C                                       F 
Then came the sirens 
C                        G               C 
And everyone started to cuss 
F 
All the noise was disturbing 
And I couldn’t find Irving 
                                                            C 
It was like two stations on at the same time 
F 
And then I hid your car keys 
And I made black coffee 
                                                       C   G 
And I dumped out the rest of the rum 

C                                       G 
Nick and Socorro broke up 
C                                          F 
And Candice wouldn’t shut up 
C                  G                   C 
Fin he recorded the whole thing 

C                                       G 
Ray he said damn you 
C                                               F 
And someone broke my camera 
C 
And it was New Years 
G                               C 
And we all started to sing 

F                          C                  G              C                           F 
Should auld acquaintance be forgot and never brought to mind 
F                           C                  G           Am              F               C 
Should auld acquaintance be forgot for the sake of auld lang syne

I was leaving in the morning with Charles for Las Vegas 
                                              C 
And I didn’t plan to come back 
F 
I had only a few things 
Two hundred dollars 
                                                           C           G 
And my records in a brown paper sack 

C                       G 
I ran out on Sheila 
C                              F 
Everything’s in storage 
C                                   G                               C
