And so he's fired his heat; he's blown his blow
     A#13              Cm7
It's coming up on sunrise and it's time to go
     A#13           Cm7
He smells like barf, his hair's a mess
  D#maj7       Fm7
He wipes the coke and lipstick off his fat hairy chest

Chorus:
  D#maj7    F7     Dm7
He stumbles home from a lezzie show
G#6/9    Fm7  F#dim
He will be at work in an hour or so
  D#maj7     F7       Dm7
He crawls in bed, with the sleeping wife
G#6/9     Fm7    F#dim  A#7   Cm Gm x2 D#
Just a night to break up this boring life
