The empty bottle was half empty, Todd was alone and I was thirsty

F

We saw her sitting at the bar, you know how some girls are

C                    G                     
Always making eyes, but she wasn't 
  F
making eyes



C

So I sidled up beside her, settled down and shouted hi there

F
My names Stewart Ransom Miller, I'm a serial lady killer

C                                       
She said I'm already dead, and 
G.              F
that's exactly what she said 



C
So we tripped, the light's fantastic, we was both made of elastic

F
Midnight came and midnight went, I thought I was the president

C                           G        
She said do you have a car, I said 
 F
do I have a car?

What's so great about the barrier reef?

G                    C

F

When your workin on a broken workin 
C .         F.     C
on a broken workin on a broken man

G                               F                 
When your workin on a broken workin 
C .         F.     C
On a broken workin on a broken man



My heart wasn't in it, not for one single minute,

I went through the motions with her, her on top and me on liquor

Didn't do no good, but I didn't think it would



What's so great about the barrier reef?

What's so fine about art?

What's so good about a good times plan?

When your workin on a broken, workin on a broken, workin on a broken man

When your workin on a broken, workin on a broken, workin on a broken man
