The chorded tabs of this song are all correct, but no one included an exact tab of the intro so I
tabbed it out with strumming pattern and major chord names, along with corrected lyrics and chord timing.
Enjoy!

[Verse]
[G]
When I got the news today
[Em]
I didn't know what to say.
[D] [Cadd9]
So I just hung up the phone.
[G]
I took a walk to clear my head,
[Em]
This is where the walking lead
[D] [Cadd9]
Can't believe you're really gone
[D]
Don't feel like going home
[Chorus]
[G]
So I'm gonna sit right here
[D]
On the edge of this pier
[Em] [Cadd9] [G] [D] (one strum...)
Watch the sunset disappear
[G]
And drink a beer
[Interlude] (Play [Intro] again)
[Verse]
[G]
Funny how the good ones go
[Em]
Too soon, but the good Lord knows
[D] [Cadd9]
The reasons why, I guess
[G]
Sometimes the greater plan
[Em]
Is kinda hard to understand
[D] [Cadd9]
Right now it don't make sense
[D]
I can't make it all make sense
[Chorus]
[G]
So I'm gonna sit right here
[D]
On the edge of this pier
[Em] [Cadd9] [G] [D]
Watch the sunset disappear
[G]
And drink a beer
[Bridge]
[Cadd9] [D]
So long my friend
[Em] [D] [Cadd9]
Until we meet again
[G] [D]
I'll remember you
[Em] [D] [Cadd9]
And all the times that we used to...
[Chorus]
[G] [D]
Sit right here on the edge of this pier
[Em] [Cadd9] [G] [D]
And watch the sunset disappear
[G] [Cadd9]
And drink a beer
[G] [Cadd9]
Drink a beer
[G] [Cadd9]
Drink a beer
