D A DI drank sixteen doubles for the price of one
G D E ATrying to find the courage to talk to one
G A D G A DI asked her for a dance, not a second glance

G D E AI'm kneeling at the altar of my nightly post
G A D G A DSo I'll raise the glass, not the first or last
A DCome join me in this toast

A DBut you know I'm gonna do it again
