[Verse]
       D                       G
I had just gotten free from my J-O-B
      A                       D
So I took myself down to the bar
           D                    G
Well from six to seven, it's a working folk's heaven
      A                           D
Half price shots and beer in a jar
 
          D                           G
Well you better get to tasting, son, time is a a-wasting
 A                         D
That's what that bar keep said
            D                                G
Seems I've barely gotten started 'fore that hour departed
 A                           D
These thoughts a-came to my head
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]
        G             D
Why do mommas always worry
           A              D
Why don't payday come on time?
 G                D
How come agave tequila tastes
A
So much better with salt and lime
 
    G             D
My sunset's so romantic
               A              D
Oh where have all the heroes gone
 G                       D
How come the world just makes more sense
 A   N.C.
When I hear a country song
 
 
[Chorus]
     G         A
And why can't stopping time
D           G
Be my superpower
 
              D
And who says happy
      A               D
Only gets to last an hour
 
 
[Verse]
          D                       G
It takes more than a sign on the window to define
     A                  D
How long we all get to thrive
          D                     G
And I'll never surrender, time pushing bartender
   A                                D
I aim for happy morning, noon, and night
 
           D                          G
Yeah, you better be believing we can keep this feeling
 A                    D
Rolling on past last call
        D                      G
And it may be semantic but I'm a ballroom romantic
           A                 D
With some questions for you all
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]
                G               D
Like why can't dogs have conversations
           A             D
Why don't money grow on trees
     G                  D
And how come it always feels so good
    A
To sit down on my favorite beach
 
      G                  D
Does thunder mean God's angry
          A                    D
Does the first kiss mean it's true
     G                     D
Now why don't we all just ask ourselves
 A   N.C.
What would Willie do
 
 
[Chorus]
     G         A
And why can't stopping time
D           G
Be my superpower
 
              D
And who says happy
      A               D
Only gets to last an hour
 
 
[Outro]
                G           A
Well let's get higher than Spider-Man
 D                      G   G  G  G
Swinging on the Eiffel Tower
 
              D          A               D  G
And who says happy only gets to last an hour
 
          D          A               D   D
Who says happy only gets to last an hour
