Standard (EADGBE)

Intro

Everybody likes a celebration

Happy music and conversation

But I'd be lying if I said I didn't have the blues

In the corner there's a couple dancing

From the kitchen I can hear her laughing

 Oh I wish I was celebrating, too

(Chorus)

 I know this night won't last forever

 I know the sun is gonna shine some time

 I need some hope for a bright tomorrow

 To show this heart is gonna mend just fine

So pardon me for my disposition

Wish I didn't have to sit and listen

She's playing the same old songs on the stereo

 She's been lying since the day I met her

I'd be better off to just forget her

 Oh I would rather be lonesome all alone

(Chorus)

Such a ridiculous situation

Pretending there's nothing wrong

She's coming on with the invitation

I wonder who is taking her home

(Chorus)
