[Intro]
     

[Verse 1]
           
Well, the nigh

t came undone 

like a party d

ress
              
And fell at he

              
r feet in a be

         
autiful mess
             
The smoke and 

              
the whiskey ca

              
me home in her

  
 curls
              
And they crept

              
 through the d

            
reams of the b

      
arroom girls

[Verse 2]
           
Well, she toss

es and turns '

cause the sun 

is unkind
              
And the heat o

              
f the day is c

              
oming in throu

        
gh the blinds
             
Leave all the 

              
blue skies for

              
 the rest of t

    
he world
              
'Cause the neo

             
n shines for t

         
he barroom gir

ls

[Bridge]
             
The barroom gi

       
rls go by your

 side
            
Like the ponie

              
s you pass on 

  
a carousel rid

e
             
And all of the

              
 colors go rou

         
nd in a swirl
              
When you dance

             
 in the arms o

             
f the barroom
