VERSE 1

 Dm                      A      A#                      F
   You, my friend, must realize. The time we have won't last. 
 Dm          A                               A#    A 
   You can't erase the past, lord knows I've tried
 Dm                     A            A#                  F
   There are times I've been way down, black and blue inside me 
 Dm                 A                   A#   C
   Old wounds still residing beneath my skin

CHORUS
      F                      A 
   So let's raise a glass to better days
 A#                        F
   Forget the past and our wicked ways 
   F                     A 
   Just let me sing this one last song
  A#                             C       Dm
   and make this feelin' last... all night long
