I've got my eye on top shelf liquor,

With legs so long they go straight to heaven,

With strange ideas and grand ambition,
G                                     C
But this guy, he's got trouble with chords.

Head held high, the luck of beginners
G                                         C

But old dead dreams are dancing in front,

Of old dead dreamers with washed up luck,
Buying love for cash
