Housemartins, Happy Hour (1986)
Key: :[Db] (w: Paul Heaton, Stan Cullimore)

INTRO: [Db] [Fm] [Gb] [G#] : [x2]

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

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

CHORUS:
What a good place to [Db] be, don't be-[Fm]-lieve it
Cause they [Gb] speak a different language
And it's [G#] never really happened to [Db] me
Don't be-[Fm]-lieve it; oh [Gb] no
Cause it's [G#] never been happy to [Db] me [Fm] [Gb] [G#]

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

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

And a-[Fm]-gain, and a-[Gb]-gain [G#]
It's happy hour a-[Db]-gain
And a-[Fm]-gain, and a-[Gb]-gain [G#]
It's happy hour a-[Db]-gain
And a-[Fm]-gain, and a-[Gb]-gain [G#]

It's happy hour a-[Db open]-gain
