Chorus:
                         G#m
Yeah, everybody needs a bar, a spot that
they can go
                   F#
A band they wanna hear and a beer they wanna hold
   G7                  G#m
A dart that they can throw,
some shit that they can shoot
                    F#
Everybody's got a friend when you
                   G7
sittin' on a stool

       G#m
Every cornfield needs rain (Yeah)
Every pickup truck needs gas
       F#
Every cane pole needs bait
                      G7
Every cowboy needs a hat
         G#m
When the workweek's been long
       C#
But it all just paid off
           F#
And it's Friday at 5:01

Chorus:
            G7          G#m
Yeah, everybody needs a bar,
a spot that they can go
                   F#
A band they wanna hear and a beer they wanna hold
   G7                  G#m
A dart that they can throw, some
shit that they can shoot
                    F#
Everybody's got a friend when you
sittin' on a stool
       G7             G#m
Where you can catch a buzz
                    F#
Maybe even fall in love
                        G#m   C#
It don't matter who you are, no
(Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh)
                   F#
Everybody needs a bar

I need a bar that I can shoot some pool, make a bet
Bum another cigarette
Make a bud, say, "Next round's on me"
I need a bar that I can cut a rug, let it loose
Kiss my girl in the corner booth
Then do it all again next week (Let's go)

Chorus:
Yeah, everybody needs a bar (Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)
A spot that they can go (Yeah)
A band they wanna hear and a beer they wanna hold
A dart that they can throw (Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)
Some shit that they can shoot
Everybody's got a friend
when you sittin' on a stool
Where you can catch a buzz
Maybe even fall in love
It don't matter who you are, no
(Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)
Everybody needs a bar (That's right)

           G#m
It's like home sweet home, when you've been gone
      F#
They say, "It ain't the same without you"
G7    G#m                  C#
They know your name, they know your drink
       F#
And a little too much about you
                   G#m
Everybody needs a bar, hmm
                    F#
Aw, yeah, a little local watering hole

Chorus:
Yeah, everybody needs a bar (Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)
A spot that they can go (Yeah)
A band they wanna hear and a beer they wanna hold
A dart that they can throw (Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)
Some shit that they can shoot
Everybody's got a friend when you sittin' on a stool
Where you can catch a buzz
(Aw, you can catch a buzz)
Maybe even fall in love (Yeah, even fall in love)
It don't matter who you are (Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)
Everybody needs a bar (That's right)

Yeah, these days we got Luke
Bryan's, Aldean's, FGL's on third
Blake's got Ol' Red, Whiskey Row, that's Dierks'
Yeah, ol' Kid Rock's Honky Tonk
and Casa Rosa's good
Carrie oughta open "Carrie-oke Underwood"
Yeah (Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)
'Cause everybody needs a bar
(Everybody needs a bar)
Everybody needs a bar (Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)
Oh (Everybody needs a bar)
