Intro: G  C 


(verse) 
               G    C           G       C 
Well I see the souls of so many friends, 
G              C             G 
  And I see us all back here again. 
C            G          D       G 
  With sandy floors and ceiling fans, 
C               D                 G 
  A Rastafarian one-man band with songs 
             C                   G 
That fill my memories like a tip jar. 
C                     G   C                G   C 
  Yeah, that's what I see, when I see this bar.

G       C                     G    C 
  I see tourists at Christmas time, 
G             C                    G 
  And I taste beers with a hint of lime. 
C        G                 D       G   
  I feel lonely cause it's not the same, 
C                     D 
  Different faces and different names, 
G                   C             G 
Living like pirates out among the stars. 
C                     G   C                G 
  Yeah, that's what I see, when I see this bar. 



[Refrão]

D                         G  
Pieces of our past slowly slip away, 
Em                     D                         C  
  But time just stands still when I walk in this place. 


(verse) 
            G  C                G 
And I see a kid coming into his own 
C       G  C                 G 
  And a man learning to move on. 
C         G         D        G  
  Somehow trying to find his way, 
C                     D 
  A dreamer betting on blind faith 
G                    C             G 
Chasing that sun and following his heart. 
C                     G   C                G 
  Yeah, that's what I see, when I see this bar. 


Instrumental: C  G  D  G, C  D  G

Pieces of our past slowly slip away, 
Em                     D                         C  
  But time just stands still when I walk in this place.

G            C                G     C 
  A few have moved on back to Maine, 
G             C           G      
  Jacksonville and Key Biscayne. 
C          G     D          G 
  Some are still living the dream, 
C                D 
  Stuck in still life it seems. 
   G                         C              G 
No matter where they've been, or where they are, 
C                 G    C                G 
  Yeah, I see 'em here, when I see this bar. 
C                 G   C, G  C, 
  when I see this bar. 


(verse-out)
 
G                   C 
  I wonder where we go from here 
G                C                   G 
  (That's what I see when I see this bar) 
                         C 
Life ain't over but it's always near 
G                C                   G 
  (That's what I see when I see this bar) 
                      C                  G 
I think about all the good times that we had 
               C                   G 
(That's what I see when I see this bar) 
                         C 
It makes me happy and it makes me sad 
G                C                   G 
  (That's what I see when I see this bar) 
                   C                  G  
How could we be so close, now so far apart 
               C                   G 
(That's what I see when I see this bar) 
              C    G              C                    G 
That's what I feel, that's what I see (when I see this bar) 
                         C                   G 
Yeah we were living like pirates and wannabe stars 
              C                   G   C, G  C, G  C, G  C, 
That's what I see when I see this bar 
G               C                   G  C, G  C, G  C, G  C, G  C  (fade) 
  That's what I see when I see this bar
