Verse 1
G 
C 
It seems like now,
D 
when I'm tired and beat
C 
and my day is done
G 
C 
G 
D 
It's not long till, my phone would ring,
C 
G 
and my night's begun, and I promise myself,
C 
G 
D 
I'll behave this time,
C 
and I won't get drunk,
G 
but then 3am comes round,
C 
D 
And we're not gonna finish
C 
Em 
till every last drop has been sunk
D 
So by the end,
Em 
D 
C 
we're gonna be quite aside
G 
So raise your glass,

C 
G 
The troubles in my life,
C 
they haven't gone
D 
But my family and my friends
C 
won't let the sadness linger on
D 
C 
G 
They've opened up new doors to me
C 
Now at last I finally see
D 
G 
D 
I'll never spend another day
C 
Living mediocrity
G 
Or go home
C 
It's been long
D 
C 
That I can't suppress the tears that flow
G 
C 
I won't be that day I'll go out again,
D 
G 
cos that strange coloured turtle
D 
C 
is calling our name
Em 
D 
But we'll stay off the shots,
Em 
D 
C 
cos they're like our kryptonite
G

Sat in a bar, we've been here before
Am 
C 
G 
It's nice when it's familiar
Em 
Here we dwell as the hours fell
Am 
C 
And we head up to
G 
the place of dogs and bells
D 
Em 
I like this place, I must confess
Am 
C 
Cause the nights we have
G 
are always at their best
D 
Em 
So in those days, I will remain
Am

Oh, I long to grab my old guitar and play
G 
D 
And sing a whole,
Em 
C 
G

G 
evenings to begin
D 
Em 
I'll sing, oh -ho, sing my song
C 
To remind us of the days
G 
of old Boston home
D 
Em 
C 
I'll sing, oh -ho, sing my song
Em

so raise your glass.

But it's gonna turn out just right
