lyrics

G D
G
Killing time ‘til happy hour
Am
Slay the minutes snuff the hours
D Eb D
You know I got no will power
G D
Killing time ‘til happy hour
G Am
Anesthetise the a.m. writing tunes
D Eb D G D
Eviscerate those endless dreary afternoons
G
Choke the living life out of the early evening
Am
blues
D Eb D G D
Do yourself a favour, try to wait until two.

Killing time ‘til happy hour
Am
Slay the minutes snuff the hours

You know I got no will power

Some days are longer than others
B7 C
Wait for time to pass by
B7 C D
Put it out of your mind and its misery
Eb D (stop)
O you know where to find me

Killing time ‘til happy hour
Solo over verse: G Am D Eb D G D
Eb D
Knock off early

Knock back a few

Knock three times

Knock Knock who’s there?
Liver failure
Solo over verse: G Am D Eb D G D
G
Attack the crack of dawn
Am
With a cold one on the lawn
D Eb D G D
Terminate the twilight with a bang

Take a mid-day trip
Am
Don’t forget to pack a punch

Call up Lily Fawn*

Try not to drink until lunch

Killing time ‘til happy hour
Am
Slay the minutes snuff the hours
D Eb D
You know I got no will power
