The Friendship Bar 3

Verse 1

Key's still warm from somebody's pocket

Door don't stick the way I thought it would

Thirty years and the sign's still crooked

Same shit letters, understood

Dust on the bottles, dust on the mirror

Somebody swept but the ghosts stayed clean

I can hear us laughing a little bit clearer

Standing right where we used to be

Pre-Chorus

Turn the lights on slow

Let the old jukebox glow

There's a song in here that never left

Chorus

Pull the stools out, wipe 'em down

This is still our side of town

Thirty years can't touch the noise

We were making, we were making

Pour it up, we're here again

Same four walls, same old friends

Nothing closed that we can't reopen

Same stools, same stools, same stools

Verse 2

Found your name still carved in the counter

Right next to mine, a little worn

I thought this door was gone forever

Turns out it was just waiting for the storm

Pre-Chorus

Turn the lights on slow

Let the old jukebox glow

There's a song in here that never left

Chorus

Pull the stools out, wipe 'em down

This is still our side of town

Thirty years can't touch the noise

We were making, we were making

Pour it up, we're here again

Same four walls, same old friends

Nothing closed that we can't reopen

Same stools, same stools, same stools

Bridge

Not one thing about us has moved

Not one thing worth losing, lost

Just older hands on the same old grooves

Counting up what it cost

Chorus

Pull the stools out, wipe 'em down

This is still our side of town

Thirty years can't touch the noise

We were making, we were making

Pour it up, we're here again

Same four walls, same old friends

Nothing closed that we can't reopen

Same stools, same stools, same stools

Outro

Turn the sign around

We're open

We were always open
