I come in here, the bar on the corner
D7 C7 G
And you ask why I'm here and if I'm the owner
G C7
Oh, you see that I've got a bundle of green
G
You say that you are lonely and free
C7
You build me up and turn me 'round
D7
And maybe there's a chance that you'd be mad about me
G
Oh, we groove on around on the ballroom floor
C7
We go back to the bar and have another drink more
G D7 G
And maybe we'll see that we were meant to be
C7
'Cause I'm looking, looking for someone
G
Looking, looking for someone
G D7 G
Looking for someone at the corner street bar
C7
Oh yes, I'm looking, looking for somebody new
G
Maybe there's a chance that I'll be mad about you
G D7 G
Oh, looking for love at the corner street bar
SOLO
G C7 G
Well I once had a wife and she was dizzy
D7 C7 G
She was the love of my life and her name it was Lizzy
C7
Oh, I never used to go downtown
G
'Cause she would pet me underneath her tree
C7
She'd bring me in and build me round
D7
But now I'm just afraid that she forgot about me
G
Oh, she breezed on down to the country club
C7
She had herself a vodka martini and Love,
G D7 G
She ain't been home, she's somewhere I could be
C7
So I'm looking, looking for someone
G
Looking, looking for someone
D7 G
Looking for someone at the corner street bar
C7
Yeah, I'm looking, looking for somebody new
G
Maybe there's a chance that I'll be mad about you
D7 G
Oh, looking for someone at the corner street bar
