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

INTRO: [Ab] [Cm] [Db] [D#] : [x2]

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

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

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

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

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

And a-[Cm]-gain, and a-[Db]-gain [D#]
It's happy hour a-[Ab]-gain
And a-[Cm]-gain, and a-[Db]-gain [D#]
It's happy hour a-[Ab]-gain
And a-[Cm]-gain, and a-[Db]-gain [D#]

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