[Intro]
E A E A
[Verse]
E
To the old chrome cassette,
A D
Of my mother's voice,
E A
I still cry when I hear her sing.
A
The clock struck twelve,
D
The voice I love so well,
E A
Was eaten up by the machine,
E A
It was eaten up by the machine!
[Chorus]
A E
When the glass is full,
A D
Drink up! Drink up!
A
This maybe the last time
E A
We see this cup.
A
If God wanted us sober,
D
He'd knock the glass over,
E A
So while it is full we drink up!
[Verse]
E
A toast to Mary,
A D
A girl I once loved,
E A
Oh Lord, why do things have to die?
A
If drinking beer,
D
Could bring her back here,
E A
I'd drink the damn place dry,
E A
Yes, I'd drink the damn place dry!
[Chorus]
A E
When the glass is full,
A D
Drink up! Drink up!
A
This maybe the last time
E A
We see this cup.
A
If God wanted us sober,
D
He'd knock the glass over,
E A
So while it is full we drink up!
[Verse]
E
Here's to the old house,
A D
On Lily Pond Lane,
E A
And the room where my boots used to rest.
A
One day I gave
D
The foundation a shake,
E A
But my home did not pass the test,
E A
No my home did not pass the test.
[Chorus]
A E
When the glass is full,
A D
Drink up! Drink up!
A
This maybe the last time
E A
We see this cup.
A
If God wanted us sober,
D
He'd knock the glass over,
E A
So while it is full we drink up!
