It's quarter to three
D D9 D D4 Am Am7
There's no one in the place except
D D9 D Am7
You and me
D D9 D Am7
So, set 'em up, Joe
D D9 D D4 Am Am7
I got a little story
D D9 D Am7 D D7M D7
You oughta know
G F7 G F7
We're drinkin', my friend
Em7 D A7 G/B B7
To the end of a brief episode
G G/F# Em7
Make it one for my baby
G G/F# G/B A7 D
And one more for the road
G Dm6
I got the routine
G Dm6 Am7 G Dm6 G Dm6
So drop another nickel in the machine
G Dm6
I feel kind a bad
G Am7 Dm6 G Dm6 G G7M G7 G6
Wish you'd make the music pretty and sad
C C9 C
Could tell you a lot
C9 Am7 G Am7 Edim E7
But it's not in the gentleman's code
A7 Em7 A7 C
So, make it one for my baby
Em7 Edim Am7 G
And one more for the road
Bridge:
Am7 C9 Am7
You'd never know it but buddy
D9
I'm a kind of poet
G G7M G7
And I got a lot of things to say
Am7 C9
And when I'm gloomy
C C/B Am7 E7 Em7 A7
You gotta listen to me till it's all talked away
G Dm6 G
Well that's how it goes, and Joe
Dm6 Am7 G Dm6 G Dm6
I know you're gettin' pretty anxious to close
D Dm6
So, thanks for the cheer
G Dm6 Am7 G Dm6 G G7M G7
I hope you didn't mind my bendin' your ear
C C9 Am7 G/B
This torch that I found must be
Am7 G Am7 Edim E7
Drowned or it soon might explode
A7 Em7 A7 C
So, make it one for my baby
Em7 Edim Am7 E7 F7 E7
And one more for the road
A7 Edim Am7 G#7 G Am7 A7 D9 Am7 G
That long, long road
Full
key step up
Half
key step up
Half
key step down
Full
key step down
