          C#maj7                    D#
I'm like Stevie Ray Vaughan on the stage, high on music
C#maj7           D#
Teeth grindin', sweatin' under the lights
            C#maj7                D#
But then my boss comes and she's crushin' me with a 20-ton weight
C#maj7             D#
Just like in Monty Python
C#maj7               D#
Somebody left on the sink, it's still running
   C#maj7             D#
My eyes are gonna overflow

Chorus:
       C#maj7     D#      C#maj7 D#
I need happy hour on sad days
       C#maj7      D#      C#maj7 D#
I need happy hour, I can't wait

I'm like Ponce de Leon, sailing on a ship for the new world
Checking out the birds and flowers, let's chill out on this
Island, I've been sucking on a lime and
Coconut (coconut), coconut (coconut)
I think I could stay here for the rest of my life
Please, don't ever make me go home

Chorus

A#m7                   Cm7                      Fm7
Maybe I'll meet a scientist in sweatpants and a hair tie
                                  D#
We'll conversate about rare birds and MIDI keyboards
          A#m7                   Cm7
And we'll slow dance, head on my shoulder swayin' back and forth and
   C#maj7
My friends look on and smile
D#
Everything's gonna be alright

 Chorus:
I need happy hour on sad days (on sad days)
I need happy hour, I can't wait (can't wait)
I need happy hour on sad days (on sad days)
Maybe I'll meet a scientist in sweatpants and a hair tie
We'll conversate about feather birds and MIDI keyboards
Then we'll slow dance
I need happy hour, I can't wait (can't wait)
