E                        A
 He´s drinking cold Corona, feels like he's getting older

 Now and noticing how he's finding

 Grey hairs left in the shower, tattoos fade by the hour
F#m               B
 And he can't understand these feelings

 Why life is getting hom down,

It feels like time's not on your side

 so his children don't know he's heading

 into a mid-lifer cricis, he can't afford the prices
F#m                   B
 for the new kitchen floor he's buying

 He's been a drunk of his life
                        E       G#    C#m
two kids a dog and a wife, he doesn't know
           F#m                      F#                   B
