The Thunderbird Inn

• E

Verse 1:
E                    G#                A                B
People are starting to tear down their Christmas lights. 
             C#       B                       A            B
It never got cold here but they know that the season's died.    (Repeat Chord Progression)
I've been sleeping in a motel off 95. I don't really mind it much. The clerk at the desk is nice. 

Chorus:
A                                               E
He pours me a coffee and asks me if it's been a long night.     (Repeat A and E)

Verse 2:
E                    G#                A            B                C#  
(Repeat Chord Progression Again)
I found a bar that's just outside the township line. I go there most every night. 
I drank my last paycheck dry and outside, a homeless man asks me for change and 
I look him straight in his eyes. He stops to apologize. 

Chorus: (Same as above chorus)
Tells me god's got a plan for me and that it'll be alright. I didn't know that I looked that pathetic

Verse 3: (Same chord progression as other verses)
The owner's been giving me a break on my rent this week. He says that I'm good for it. 
I joke how I'm probably but I came up short again and nobody's laughing. I'll sneak out at 2 am. 
I can't do it honestly. 

Chorus: Same
I know I'm a coward and I feel a bad night coming. I didn't know that I looked that pathetic. 

Bridge:
E           A                            B                                 C#
So, pour me another drink for a daughter I'll never meet, a wife who don't love me 
and this cold cup of coffee.
E       A                               B 
Pour me another drink and I'll count my blessings. 
                        A                 B            E     
I've got a half tank of gas left and this bottle ain't empty.
