TAKE ME OUT DRINKING TONIGHT
(Michael Marra)

D Em F#m G
When these shoes were new it was "How do you do"
D Em A
It was whisky and telling our tales
D Em F#m G
And when my shirt was clean , I was there to be seen
D Em A
I had clean eyes and my smile never failed


Bbm F#m G D
And all of my brothers that I met on the way,
Bbm F#m Em A no chords
They were drinking by night and they were drinking by day
G D G D
Ah restore to my eyes what was clear and was bright
D A G
And Honey take me out drinking tonight,
D A D
Honey take me out drinking tonight

D Em F#m G
Bluebells and matches and stains on the table
D Em A
The sweet smell of the luscious Woodbine.
D Em F#m G
"Ah Mister McEwen you will be my ruin"
D Em A
I say, but I don't really mind


Bbm F#m G D
And all of my brothers that I met on the way,
Bbm F#m Em A no chords
They were drinking by night and they were drinking by day


G D G D
Ah restore to my eyes what was clear and was bright
D A G
And Honey take me out drinking tonight,
D A D
Honey take me out drinking tonight


D Em F#m G
Oh I'm still smiling through, though there's stains on my shoes
D Em A
The right is heavy and the left it is light
D Em F#m G
And if it's left up to you then I know what you'd do
D A G
Honey take me out drinking tonight
D A D
Honey take me out drinking tonight


Bbm F#m G D
And all of my brothers that I met on the way,
Bbm F#m Em A no chords
They were drinking by night and they were drinking by day
G D G D
Ah restore to my eyes what was clear and was bright
D A G
And Honey take me out drinking tonight,
D A G
Honey take me out drinking tonight
D A G F#m Em D
Honey take me out drinking tonight
