Odds - The Last Drink

      The first chord, which occurs throughout the verses, is A7/B ,
though he actually walks the bass line (with hammer-ons)
from E to F# to A to B. If you're simplifying the chords,
I think a Bm or a Bsus2 sounds more accurate than just playing the A7.
The right bass note is critical to the sound.

A7/B   x-2-2-0-2-x


[Intro]
A7/B

[Verse 1]
A7/B
Carrying your ashes from bar to bar
D
I'm in a mess and you're in a mason jar
         A7/B
With you under my arm like a football
         D
I'm not ready to let go and that is all
        G
You were never big on conversation
         A7
And that hasn't changed since your cremation

[Chorus]
      D                        G
And I feel most times like you do
           D                         G
You know I feel most times like you do
   D
I wish that I was hard nosed
        Bm7
Fight a forest fire with a garden hose
        E7
And be brave enough right now
   N.C.                   A7/B
To start on something new

[Verse 2]
         A7/B
You were right there in the urn

Light as a feather
      D
If my hands weren't shaky I'd

Glue you back together
     A7/B
This watering hole was our favourite stop
        D
So I'll take off the lid and pour a drink down the top for you
         G
And I'll pull down on that magic lever that
A7
Makes it stay the past forever

[Chorus]
      D                        G
And I feel most times like you do
           D                         G
You know I feel most times like you do
D
Someone stabbed my voodoo doll
        Bm7
Now it hurts each time that nature calls
           E7                            N.C.              A7/B
And you're lucky that nature's finished calling out to you

[Verse 3]
         A7/B
You were down to your very last

Little belt loop but you were
D
Tougher than a pit bull in the paratroops
                A7/B
And if you're afraid of getting hurt

You suffer more ills
          D
Like the hypochondriac who dies choking on his pills
            G
So I should swallow real hard and deal with this pain
              A
'Cause I'm as wasted as a neat freak in a hurricane

[Chorus]
       D                        G
And I feel most times like you do
           D                         G
You know I feel most times like you do
  D
I thought I was the one that died
         Bm7
This was heaven's weird amusement ride
        E7
But you pinched me in a dream
       A
And I saw it wasn't true

[Outro]
       G            A            D        F#m
So I'm dumping your ashes on the floor
           G               A
And we'll laugh as people slip on you
      D              F#m
While coming in this door
         G                 A
And I'll drink on what you said
    D            F#m
To stop my feet dragging
   N.C.
No one dog's bark should ever stop the waggin'
