G A C D
Chorus
G
One drop,
A
until I fill it to the top
C
and I will not stop,
D
until I feel like I can float away.
G
Fill it up,
A
until to the top of the cup,
C
but it's never enough
D
till I feel like I can float away.
(repeat)
(*)Ouu... I feel like I can float away.. Ouu..
(verse 1)
G
Here we are hours 'til doors.
A
A Bloody Mary because of the night before.
C
Don't juice it up,and here we go.
D
I grab some liquid strength
G
and on with show.
A
The doors open seven on the dot.
C
The crowd is drunk from drinking in the parking lot.
D
Club fills up from the bottom to the top.
Some one pass the bottle and give me!
(Chorus)(*)
(verse 2)
G
I got my cup, I got my game face on.
A
The crowd is pumped off a slightly stoopid song.
C
Ready or not, baby, here we come.
D
The start up the guitars and add same bass and drums.
G
Ooh..can you feel it. Ooh..can you feel the vibe.
A
It's in the air and everyone is high.
C
A night like this and you'll never wanna stop.
D
Someone pass the bottle and give me!
(Chorus)(*)
(Bridge)
E D C G
I know it gets hard sometimes, being so far from home.
C G
Waking up in the middle of the night, a crowded room and feel so alone.
E D C G
Thousand miles 'til your next destination, that's how it always is.
E D
But you know its all worth it.
C
Playing for a crowd like this...
And all you need is....
(Chorus)(*4X)
