When
the Hangover Strikes (Difford/Tilbrook)
/Ab G /C7 /F /C7 /C7
When the hangover strikes and I open my post and the coffee is on
/F7 /Fm
and I'm burning my toast, I let the battle commence
/C Dm
I see a sun in the trees and a draught at the door
/Em Bb / Dm . . G7
with my head in my lap there's a day to explore
/Ab Gsus /C7 F7/ C7 G7(b9) /
but I'm left without sense.
/C7 /F7 /C7 /C7
As the hangover strikes, and I turn on the tap but the water's too loud.
/F7 /Bb7 B7
And I'm caged by the fact that the battle's not lost
/C Dm
Is it the hair of the dog or the Baa of the lamb
/Em Bb
In a sheepish attempt to be half
/Dm . . G7/ Ab Gsus/ C7 F7 / C7
of the man that I might be or was
BRIDGE
/F /Bb ..G7 /C Dm/ Em F#m/
Poor, poor, poor, poor shaken one
/Fm /Bb7 /Ebmaj7 /Dm G7/
Pour, pour, pour, pour me another one, another one.
/C7 /F7 /C7 /C7
When the hangover strikes and the mirror reveals that it's midnight or bust
/F7 /Fm
And a drink does appeal, now the battle is won
/C Dm
So the cure of the can pours it's heart out to me
/Em Bb /Dm . . G7
Though I'm feeling locked up and I can't find the key
/Ab Gsus /C7 F7/ C7/
Well, no damage was done.
