Housemartins, Happy Hour (1986)
^{Key: :[B] (w: Paul Heaton, Stan Cullimore)}

INTRO: [B] [D#m] [E] [F#] : [x2]

VERSE 1:
It's [B] happy [D#m] hour again
I [E] think I might be happy
If I [F#] wasn't out with them
And they're [B] happy
It's a [D#m] lovely place to be
[E] Happy that the fire's real
The [F#] barman is a [B] she

BRIDGE 1:
Where their [B] haircuts smile
And the meaning of style
Is a night out with the [F#] boss
Where you [B] win or you lose
And it's them who choose
And if you don't win then you've [F#] lost [F# open]

CHORUS:
What a good place to [B] be, don't be-[D#m]-lieve it
Cause they [E] speak a different language
And it's [F#] never really happened to [B] me
Don't be-[D#m]-lieve it; oh [E] no
Cause it's [F#] never been happy to [B] me [D#m] [E] [F#]

VERSE 2:
It's a-[B]-nother [D#m] night out with the boss
[E] Following in footsteps [F#] overgrown in moss
And he [B] tells me that [D#m] women grow on trees
And if you [E] catch them right
They will [F#] land upon their [B] knees

BRIDGE 2:
Where they [B] open all their wallets
And they close all their minds
And they love to buy you all a [F#] drink
And as [B] we ask all the questions
And you take all your clothes off
And go back to the kitchen [F#] sink [F# open]

And a-[D#m]-gain, and a-[E]-gain [F#]
It's happy hour a-[B]-gain
