[Intro]
Bbm
Come let's light a fire
Fm
Drink a beer and sing a song
Bbm
We'll be dead before we know it
Fm
We don't have very long
Bbm
As the world outside collapses
Fm
and confuses right and wrong
C
Light a fire
Bbm C
Drink a beer
Fm
Sing a song
[Verse 1]
Bbm Fm
For many long years we've scrubbed these decks and walked these restless streets
Bbm
We had home on our minds
Fm
We had blisters on our feet
Bbm
And we sung our songs of crooked words
Fm
to everyone we meet
C
From the cliffs of Hayle in Cornwall
Fm
to the cities of concrete.
[Chorus]
Bbm
And that road ahead just stretches out
Fm
so long, oh so long!
C
Light a fire
Bbm C
Drink a beer
Fm
Sing a song
[Verse 2]
Bbm
Our friends they are all bartenders
Fm
Our heroes are all dead
Bbm
We got our guitars for company
Fm
and some sofa for a bed
Bbm
You won't hear our songs on television
Fm
We never get reviewed
C Fm
We just do our bad Dylan impressions in the upstairs rooms
[Chorus]
Bbm
And that road ahead just stretches out
Fm
so long, oh so long!
C
Light a fire

Drink a beer

Sing a song

Bbm Fm
When I die send my bones to the funeral museum
Bbm Fm
Behind glass they'll look so sharp the robots will flock to see 'em
Bbm Fm
When I'm done send my things to the landfill by the road
[Chorus 2]
C
As for my soul,
Bbm C
As for my soul,
Fm
Let it come, let it go
[Outro]
