[Verse 1]
C+9/G G5
I'm sipping Flor de Caña and lime juice, it's three a.m.
C+9/G G5
Blow a fruit fly off the rim of my glass
C+9/G G5
The radio's playing Superchunk and the Friends of Dean Martinez
Dsus C+9/G G
[Verse 2]
C+9/G G5
Midnight it was bike tires whacking the potholes
C+9/G G5
Milling humans, shivering energy glow
C+9/G G5
Fusing the spaces between them with bar-throb bass and laughter
Dsus C+9/G G
[Chorus]
Emsus G9
If this were the last night of the world

[Verse 3]
C+9/G G5
I learned as a child not to trust in my body
C+9/G G5
I've carried that burden through my life
C+9/G G5
But there's a day when we all have to be pried loose
Dsus C+9/G G

C6,9/E G
Unless it was cham - pagne with you
[Verse 4]
C+9/G G5
I’ve seen the flame of hope among the hopeless
C+9/G G5
And that was truly the biggest heartbreak of all
C+9/G G5
That was the straw that broke me open
Dsus C+9/G G
[Chorus]
Emsus G9
If this were the last night of the world
