[Verse 1]
       G             G   
And we drink and get older
             C                 C       
And some of us even try to get sober
                   G                G
Now here's to the assholes and the last calls
           D                      D
Well, city kids, you get what you ask for

[Pre-Chorus]
      G                                         G
And acquaintances turn to friends, I hope those friends they remember me
C                                  C   
   Hold the night for ransom as we kidnap the memories
G                               G
   Not sure there is a way to express what you meant to me
D                                     N.C.
   Sit around a table and use those years as the centerpiece

[Chorus]
G                     Cadd9     G
Sounds of the city on Capitol Hill
         C                   C  
Where I question if what I'm seeing here is real
G                  Cadd9         G
Cowboy boots doing lines at the bar
           D                          D                  
Where the time goes slow when you're drinking PBR
G                     Cadd9     G
Sounds of the city on Capitol Hill
         C                   C  
Where I question if what I'm seeing here is real
G                  Cadd9         G
Cowboy boots doing lines at the bar
           D                                    
Where the time goes slow when you're drinking PBR


[Verse 1]
G                          C                      G
  Hold on to what you were,   forget what you're not
     G                             D                G
The streets were ours that summer,   at least those two blocks
G                                         C               G  
   Reminisce on those days, I guess that's okay,             
               G                       G
you wonder why, Some grow up, move on, close the chapter, live separate lives
G                          G
  The twenty-something confusion before the suit and tie
C                                        C
  Strangers become mistakes but those mistakes made you feel alive
G                         G 
  Hindsight is vibrant, reality: rarely lit
D                                    D
   Memory's a collage pasted to the glue that barely sticks
G                 G
  Good Lord, they broke all my shields
C                             C
  Locked bathroom doors, graffiti, and high heels
  G                                   G
Until you felt that altitude you don't know how high feels
      C                               C
Party mountain, some don't ever come down from around here,
G                  G
  To be young again, I guess it's relative
C                               C
  The camel lights, the whiskey rye, sink into the skin
G                      G
  I fantasize about a second wind
             D                        D   
Grow a moustache, pick up another bad habit and let the games begin

[Chorus]
G                     Cadd9     G
Sounds of the city on Capitol Hill
         C                   C  
Where I question if what I'm seeing here is real
G                  Cadd9         G
Cowboy boots doing lines at the bar
           D                          D                  
Where the time goes slow when you're drinking PBR
G                     Cadd9     G
Sounds of the city on Capitol Hill
         C                   C  
Where I question if what I'm seeing here is real
G                  Cadd9         G
Cowboy boots doing lines at the bar
           D                          D           
Where the time goes slow when you're drinking PBR

[Verse 2]
G                         C                
  So here's to the nights, dancing with the band
G                                   D
  Strangers into girlfriends from a one night stand
G                                C
Brought a little liquor and turn up the Johnny Cash
          G                                 D
You could bring a receipt to Heaven but you cannot take it back
             G                       C
And this is life, this is real, even when it feels like it isn't
         G                      D
I'd be a Goddamn liar to say at times I didn't miss it
   G                             C
So deuces, I turn my back as I walk into the distance
       G                                       N.C.
Dip my feet in every once in a while, just to say I visit

[Bridge]
G                      G  
    Come and hold onto these nights
        C                        C  
Try to find our way home by the street light
      G                          G
Over time you figure out this is me, right?
        D                            D      
Learn a lot about your friends right around two A.M

[Pre-Chorus]
     G                                           G
And acquaintances turn to friends, I hope those friends they remember me
C                                  C   
   Hold the night for ransom as we kidnap the memories
G                                 G
   Not sure there is a way to express what you meant to me
D                                     N.C.
   Sit around a table and use those years as the centerpiece

[Chorus]
G                     Cadd9     G
Sounds of the city on Capitol Hill
         C                   C  
Where I question if what I'm seeing here is real
G                  Cadd9         G
Cowboy boots doing lines at the bar
           D                          D            
Where the time goes slow when you're drinking PBR
