GCGC Old man on a barstool watching TV GAmCG He got up and came over to sit closer to me GCGC He said you look familiar to someone I knew GAmCG But when we were your age we were older than you GCGC Jimmy was twenty and I seventeen GAmCG To us there was nothing but girls and machines GCGC Jimmy got married and I went to war GAmCG I still don't know what we were doing it for GCGC But if you'll buy me a drink a turkey on ice GAmC Then I could give you some advice
CHORUS
GAmC You just stay in the bar GAmC For as long as you can EmG Cuz as long as you're drinking AmC You've got the world in your hand
GCGC There's no shame in hanging your world by a string GAmCG You know there's no harm in not thinking a thing GCGC But trying to find a place for yourself in this world GAmCG Is like trying to make a wife of an American girl GCGC If you trade me a drink for a story or two GAmC Then you'll know what you need to do
CHORUS GAmC You just stay in the bar GAmC For as long as you can EmG No love is for sissies AmC It's whiskey that makes you a man
GCGC Now the old man got up Stumbled out in the street GAmCG Been drinking all day and left his bar tab to me GCGC I didn't have the money to cover his bill GAmCG But I found me a man looked like me younger still GCGC And I said buy me a drink and I'll tell you a tale GAmC About the old man who taught me so well
CHORUS GAmC He said 'Stay in the bar GAmC For as long as you can EmG Well I know you're a friend AmC I can tell by the shakes in your hands
GAmC You just stay in the bar GAmC For as long as you dare EmG As long as you're tipping AmC Then you've got a friend somewhere
