[Verse 1]
A G D
We were rolling down Beale street
G D
In the Tennessee summer heat
G D
I can't say it's the land of free
G D
But I'll tell ya, the booze runs cheap
A G D
And there we met Drake's dad
G D
Told him we came from Hamilton
G D
He said he knew a Canadian girl
G D
Who had a thing for Americans
[Pre-Chorus]
G Gm D
And all the girls back home will tell you
G Gm D
Some grown ass men acting like boys
G Gm
There's some Peter Pan shit we're tryna work out
D E
But when Sunday comes around, will you dig us on out?
G
So we can be in your arms again
A
Let me be in your arms again
[Chorus]
C G D
Because I hold you (so high)
C G D
Well let me hold you (so tight)
C G D
So won't you hold up (that light)
Bm D
So I can come home to find you?
[Interlude]
D
Yeah, yeah
G D
G D
Yeah, yeah
G D
[Verse 2]
A G D
We took the 40 down to Nashville
G D
We started getting a bit irrational
G D
The place was asking had questions
G D
For a bunch of bachelors
A G D
So we stumbled down Broadway
G D
Everybody getting sloppy
G D
We met some girls getting married
G D
But they came here to party
[Pre-Chorus]
G Gm D
And no one knows how we made it back to the hotel
G Gm D
Adam took off his pants again, yes he did
G Gm
There's some Peter Pan shit we're tryna work out
D E
But when Sunday comes around, will you dig us on out?
G
So we can be in your arms again
A
Girl, let me be in your arms again
[Chorus]
C G D
Because I hold you (so high)
C G D
Well let me hold you (so tight)
C G D
So won't you hold up (that light)

So I can come home to find you?

Bring her on up

[Bridge]
B A E A E
I do my best thinking, thinking in the shower
A E A E
Sometimes I do my pre-drinking, drinking in the shower

So I think about my neighbors and the politics and labor

Between Karl and Groucho, I couldn't tell you which I favor
[Chorus]
