Intro: C/G  Cmaj7  C/G  Cmaj7
 
              C/G 
There was a lonely guy named Robert 
           Em 
Who was feeling kind of down 
       Am 
So he got himself a beer 
        E 
And he sat there with a frown 
     F                                      Am 
His girlfriend just broke up with him that day 
                     Em         G 
So things were not okay 
  
verse 1 
      C/G                        Em 
So he got himself a Lyft without any hesitation 
        Am 
Driver said, "where are you going?" 
        E 
I don't have a destination 
         F                                Am 
He said "I know a nice bar that has great booze" 
                       Dm        E 
Well I have nothing to lose 
      Am                              Em 
So he got out of the car and made his way inside the bar 
     E                             Am 
The driver out the window yelled "please give me five stars" 
  
verse 2 
    F                                 G 
He then sat down to get a drink from the bartender by the sink 
        E                               G                      (G-->C in piano) 
That's when he saw the very thing that changed his whole reality 
    C                         Em          Am 
And oh, it was the prettiest face in the world 
                          Dm 
She was unlike any other girl 
                                       Gsus4       G 
She smiled and her teeth were white as pearls, oh yeah 
                C     F-C 
Like any other girl 
(Fast) F                             G 
So he got up from his seat cause his heart skipped a beat 
        Am 
It was time to change his day 
         G 
He knew just the thing to say 
          C (once) 
He said "hey" 
          C (once) 
She said" hey" 
          C (once) 
He said "hey"     (PAUSE) 
            C (once) 
He said "sorry to interrupt" 
  
verse 3 
        F (once) 
Robert walked back to his seat 
        G (once) 
As he accepted his defeat 
         Em 
Then he finished up his beer 
       Am 
As he lost all of his cheer 
         F 
Then he felt the hand upon his shoulder 
G 
As the air grew even colder 
     E              G 
She said before he drank another 
  C                   Em 
"Sorry about what happened with my brother" 
      C                  Em 
"I thought that was your man" 
        C              Em 
"It's just my brother Dan" 
      C 
"Hey Dan" 
      C (with higher C) 
"Hey man" 
       F               E 
So he got right up off of his chair 
         G (arpeggio G until cut off) 
Then he ran his fingers through her hair and...
