Three Manhattans

Biography:

"Larry & His Flask are like no band I’ve ever seen (which seems to be the general consensus). As soon as Jamin says “Hello everybody we’re Larry & His Flask!” and the first song begins people are glued to the stage. Everyone is watching with smiles and wide eyes. People are looking at their friends shaking their heads with looks on their faces that say: “What the hell is this?!“ When all 6 members are on stage they are truly a sight to behold.

[Intro]
G B7 C D7 *2
or
Riff *2

[Verse]
G
Well I'm gone again, give them my best
B7
I'll float my wishes to the west
C D7 G
When I come home, it'll all be fine

G
But it's the way it goes and ain't it so
B7
The fastest one to let it go
C D7 G
Always out of sight and out of mind

G B7 C D7
or
Riff *2

G
Now the coins go tumblin' through the cracks
B7
There aint no way she's ever gonna get them back
C D7 G
And the tears come hard like the cold November rain

G
And it's safe to say that we both know
B7
That I don't really have to say I told you so
C D7 G
Cause if I did, I'd have to again and again and again

[Chorus]
Em F#dim7
But with tattered wings
G G#dim7
Staggering against the wind
Am G
It's so damn hard to fly
Em F#dim7
But that old bird
G G#dim7
Never understood a word
Am Bbdim7 B7
Of taking flight alone without a plan
D7 G
I'll be there when she lands

G B7 C D7
or
Riff *2

[Verse]
G
Now the struggles on and it won't be long
B7
Til winter's clutch is holdin' strong
C D7 G
And I do believe it won't soon be letting go

G
So bid farewell to the ones you knew
B7
Like a drunk old sinner born a-new
C D7 G
And say hello to the sweeping winds of change

[Chorus]
Em F#dim7
Yeah, speed it up my friend
G G#dim7
The sooner you're caught, then the sooner you'll mend
Am G
And your wounds will heal in time
Em F#dim7 G G#dim7
It takes one to know one
Am Bbdim7
Now you should know that by now
B7
Don't you feel bad?
D7 G
It's all you ever had

[Bridge]
Em Am
And though I really can't believe the things that I have seen
D7 G
It puts my feet back on the ground where yours probably should have been
C C#7 B7 D7 G
All along, throughout the song, three Manhattans and we can't move along

G B7 C D7
or
Riff *2

[Chorus]
Em F#dim7
Let's skip ahead some years
G G#dim7
The dust has settled and the smoke has cleared
Am G
And all is well and fine
Em F#dim7
There's no thunder or lightning
G G#dim7
The water's warm and the fish are biting
Am Bbdim7 B7
There's no bumps in the road that I can see
D7 G
Smooth sailing on the sea
