D G
Lounge bands we are watching
Em
While playing video poker
C
And 46 ounce Margueritas
D
We are drinking
G
We're having dinner at the Santa Fe
Em
Walking underneath the lights
C
We're staying on the seventh floor
D
Of the Fitzgerald
G
And we're walking along the railroad tracks
Em
At five in the morning
C
Wishing we could always be like this
D
That we'd never have to go back...
