Song: Last Night Tab
Last Night
by Mark David Manders and Neuvo Tejas
from the album "Tales from the Couch Circuit"
Transcribed by Thomas Faulkenberry
C
Hung over on the couch again
G
Feelin' like a fool don't you know I've been
F
Chasin' a dream and losing sleep
C G
Just a victim of the hours I keep
In 29 days, I'll be 30 years old
Still ain't found a job that I can hold
But I've held on through thick and thin
To one thing that I believe in
(chorus)
C G
Last night we had a pretty good crowd
F C
They were tappin' their toes and singin' out loud
Dm G
They heard every song we came to play
C G
Well I lost track of time, but I suppose
F C
We'd a played all night if that bar didn't close
G F C
Nights like that don't happen every day
I've played some dives where no one showed
I've made less than the bar tab I owed
Played for free and just for the booze
It's a little thing called payin' your dues
Those nights I got lost on my way home
And the nights I spent so all alone
Call on me from time to time
And end up in the words of a rhyme
(repeat chorus)
I'd like to shut it down for a week
Rest up my voice, maybe get some sleep
But the chances of a vacation are slight
Tryin' to make a livin' playing music at night
So I spread my bills out on the floor
Choose the ones to pay and the ones to ignore
Tell myself it'll be alright
Pick up my guitar and begin to write
(repeat chorus)
