Whiskey in the Window Seat

[Verse 1]

There’s a lad by the door

Says he once owned a ship

Now he just owns a tab

And a permanent lip

Old Bridie’s pouring hope

In a cracked heavy glass

Says

“You’re rich as a king

If your troubles can pass”

[Chorus]

Raise your glass

Let the rafters shake

To the lies that the lonely make

To the hearts that are half-beat

Half-complete

Here’s to every lost soul

In a whiskey in the window seat (hey!)

Whiskey in the window seat

[Verse 2]

There’s a ring on a chain

Round my neck

Turning green

She ran off with a dream

I stayed here with the scene

But the boys bang the table

Till the doubt rattles out

And the floor starts to sway

Like it’s singing aloud

[Chorus]

Raise your glass

Let the rafters shake

To the lies that the lonely make

To the hearts that are half-beat

Half-complete

Here’s to every lost soul

In a whiskey in the window seat (sing!)

Whiskey in the window seat

[Bridge]

So if you’re broke

If you’re blessed

If you’re halfway to beat

There’s a chair

There’s a cheer

There’s a curse

There’s a seat

We’ve got stories to waste

We’ve got songs to repeat (one more!)

Till the daytime forgets

Where we hid our defeat

[Chorus]

Raise your glass

Let the rafters shake

To the lies that the lonely make

To the hearts that are half-beat

Half-complete

Here’s to every lost soul

In a whiskey in the window seat (hey!)

Whiskey in the window seat
