Capo 3
[Verse]
C Em7 D
Go ahead and burn it down
C Em7 D
I'm drunk and so is everyone else
D Em7 C
In this devil town
C Em7 D
They won't let me turn around
C Em7 D
To get one last look at my baby
[Chorus]
Em7 D
While she's still around
[Verse]
C Em7 D
Go ahead and build it up again
C Em7 D Em7 C
This city's just cemeteries and forgotten men
C Em7 D
My only hope's to see you
C Em7 D
And even if I never do
[Chorus]
Em7 C Em7 D
While she's still ar-o--und
D C Em7 D
While she's still ar-o--und
[Bridge]
Em7 G Cadd9
And I know what your thinking, But that won't stop this drinking,
G D
It's the least I can do
Em7
Cause this life
G
Is anything but certain
Cadd9
When they close the final curtain
G D
You'll get a glimpse of the truth
C Em7 D
Cause you're still ar--o---und
[Chorus]
C Em7 D
While she's still ar-o--und
C Em7 D
While she's still ar-o--und
C Em7 D
While she's still ar-o--und
C
While she's still around...
[Verse]
(single strum this for dramatic affect)
C D
Go ahead and burn it down
Cadd9 Em7
I'm drunk and so is everyone else
Em7 D C
In this... devil... town
