Last Call at the Tiki Bar
Girard
Last Call at the Tiki Bar
(Verse 1)
Palm trees swayin’ like they know my name
Neon sunset and a southbound flame
Flip-flops kickin’ by an old wood chair
Salt on the breeze and rum in the air
Steel guitar hummin’ through the speakers low
Couple broke hearts tryin’ not to show
Bartender laughin’, says “boys, where you been?”
We said “same old trouble, pour us one again”
(Chorus)
It’s last call at the tiki bar
Moon hangin’ high and the tide rollin’ hard
We’re singin’ Jimmy tunes with a country soul
Tryin’ to mend what the whiskey stole
One more round underneath the stars
One more dance with a broken heart
We ain’t ready for the neon dark
It’s last call at the tiki bar
(Verse 2)
Bonfire glow down the beach tonight
Girls in cutoff jeans under Christmas lights
Old beach truck with the tailgate down
Radio cracklin’ that small-town sound
A blonde by the jukebox stole my drink
Stole my hat and made me think
Maybe goodbye ain’t always goodbye
Maybe some loves just wash back with the tide
(Chorus)
It’s last call at the tiki bar
Moon hangin’ high and the tide rollin’ hard
We’re singin’ Jimmy tunes with a country soul
Tryin’ to mend what the whiskey stole
One more round underneath the stars
One more dance with a broken heart
We ain’t ready for the neon dark
It’s last call at the tiki bar
(Bridge – slow and swayin’)
And the waves keep crashin’
Like a backbeat drum
Every lost soul here
Got a place to run
No clocks, no worries
Just a six-string song
If heaven’s got a shoreline
I hope they play along
(Final Chorus – bigger singalong)
Yeah, last call at the tiki bar
Everybody singin’ from near and far
Cold drinks raised to the midnight sky
Laughin’ loud while the sparks fly high
One more memory in these old guitars
One more wish on a fallen star
Nobody leaves till they close that bar
It’s last call at the tiki bar
(Outro)
Yeah, the tide rolled in
But we stayed right where we are…
Last call at the tiki bar
