Life Of The Party
Charlie Robison


          D            G           D 
Well they call me the life of the party 
D                 E           A 
They call her the bell of the ball 
     D        G      D 
Well we start before anybody 
D                   A            D 
And I promise we'll outlast them all
 
D                    G        D 
Well it started when I was in High School 
D                 E         A 
My mom and my dad taught me well 
  D         G             D 
A bottle of wine at Thanksgivin' 
                  A              D 
And a Valium when Grandma raised hell 
 
D                 G          D 
So I had some champagne at a wedding 
D                   E              A 
I believe that they called it cold duck 
D                     G          D 
And the girl I'd been eyein' all evening 
D                 A           D 
She took me round back and we sucked down  
    G            D
The rest of that bottle 
 
                  E          A 
And things really started to click  
        D             G        D 
Well we kissed on the boxes of Liquor 
                         A                D 
And she reached down and grabbed her some Dickel 
G              D 
And added some cola 
 
              E           A 
Far be it for me should I pass 
    D                 G       D 
For I thought that if I drink another 
 
              A            D 
I'd certainly need me some aspirin  
G           D 
On the next mornin' 
 
D                E         A 
I'd tried not to make me a sound 
          D            G        D 
Cause the girl who was sleepin' beside me 
D                  A   D 
Had gained herself 200 pounding 
   G          D 
On my bedroom window 
 
D                E           A 
My dad yelled to jump out of bed 
    D                G         D 
But she woke up from all the commotion 
D             A            D 
Insisting she give me some headlines 
      G           D 
She'd read in the paper 
 
                E          A 
She said it had been yesterday 
     D           G        D 
They said if you use moderation 
                   A           D 
Our mornings could all be that way 
 
          D           G           D 
Well they call me the life of the party 
D                 E           A 
They call her the bell of the ball 
     D          G       D 
Well we start before anybody 
                    A            D 
And I promise we'll outlast them all
