Hellbound on a Barstool

(as seen in "The Parking Lot Movie")
G Em D
I think I'm going down, somehow I don't care
G Em D
There's a band that's playing pretty and a lot of ladies there
G Em D
Dancing quite divine, angels keeping time
G Em D
But I cant take my eyes of the exit sign
CHORUS:
C D
And I'm hellbound on a barstool
G G/F# Em D
Wond'ring where it all went wrong
C D
Hellbound on a barstool
G G/F# Em D
While the angels play their song
C
I try to sign along
D
But I fear I'm
G
Too far gone
G Em D
A poor man begs a dollar, says he needs it for a ride
G Em D
I ask him where he's going, he says to the other side
G Em D
I wish him best of luck, he says it's worth a try
G Em D
And I don't have much money but for those angels I oblige
REPEAT CHORUS
G Em D
Would I leave here if I could?
G Em D
The angels tell me that their offering 's still good
G Em D
But I'm attended by Mephistopholes, gotten messed up and down on my knees
G Em D
When the lights go on the angels leave, will there be a light in me?
REPEAT CHORUS
