[Verse 1]
F
Lying on the couch
F
Before we all go out
Gm C
And walk down to the Tower and Tree
F
It’s where we all end up
F
Let’s go and see what’s up
Gm C
Where the after hours will be
[Chorus]
Am Dm
The hardest working slacker in town
Gm C7
Making copies after midnight
Am Dm
Replacing all the posters pulled down
Gm C7
By the old man with the flashlight
C#dim F Gm C7
On his belt
[Verse 2]
F
Guest list at the door
F
Guess who we’re playing for
Gm C7
The ballad of an empty room
F
Our friends have all agreed
F
We’ve got everything we need
Gm C7
Nothing’s happening but it’s happening soon
[Chorus]
Am Dm
When they finally shut the place down
Gm C7
They can sell it to a stranger
Am Dm
How do you define a town
Gm C7
It’s the people after hours
C#dim Bb
And their songs
[Bridge]
Bb F
No more planning is required
Bb Bbm F
The whole planet’s catching fire anyway
Gm C7 F
What time’s the first band play?
[Instrumental Bridge]
F Gm C7
F Gm C7
F Gm G
[Verse 3]
Ab
Built a music scene
Ab
On something in between
Bbm Eb7
A promise and convenient lie
Ab
It’s harder than it seems
Ab
When you’re embarrassed of your dreams
Bb Eb7
And you can’t fail if you never try
[Chorus]
Cm Fm
Counting down the nights of our lives
Bbm Eb7
In a rocket tipping over
Cm Fm
Miss the moment when it arrives
Bbm Eb7
Were you sleeping on the sofa?
Bbm Eb7
Were you sleeping on the sofa?
Bbm Eb7
Were you sleeping on the sofa?
Ab
Sofa so good
[Outro]
Ab Bbm Eb7
