Bm  D  A  Em G D

Bm  D  A  Em G D       Welcome new face,         to my place.          I've got somethin' for you.
Bm  D  A  Em G D       Your eyes tell me   you'd find delight in this new brew.
Em  G  D  A G D          So take a seat        and rest your feet and put your baggage down.
Em  G  D  A G D          You've found your way, I hope you'll stay at my place.  Stick around

Bm  D  A  Em G D       How much should I         fill your glass?       You gotta let me know.
Bm  D  A  Em G D       I don't wanna                 pour too much      and make it over flow.
Em  G  D  A G D          I have learned                 not to pour too fast.  No one wants a mess.
Em  G  D  A G D          and sometimes it's best to realize:                 more is often less.

Bm  D  A  Em G D       Now take your glass        into the air   but before you drink.
Bm  D  A  Em G D       Take this time        to clear your mind and ponder what your think.

chorus:
Em7    Bm                    Is it a feeling                   that you'd like to share?
Em7    Bm  D               I have a feeling,     my heart would Love to care.
G  D  Em  Bm G D       This is a feeling,     and I'm well aware
G  D  Em Bm Em         it could be fleeting, but drink me if you dare.

Em Bm Em

Bm  D  A  Em G D       If you decide         you'd like to try and let me quench your thirst.
Bm  D  A  Em G D       Raise your glass up to your lips and let the liquid burst.
Em  G  D  A G D          The first taste        might be startling,  not what you had thought,
Em  G  D  A G D          but savor     this new flavor,      a little might be a lot.

Bm  D  A  Em G D       Some folks aren't   ready                   for what can happen next.
Bm  D  A  Em G D       Their minds begins to race around      and wonder what to expect.

{chorus}

Bm  D  A  Em G D       "What do you want?" I'll query them, "It's up to you.
Bm  D  A  Em G D       "You can stay        and chat and drink the vat of this homebrew.
Em  G  D  A G D          "All I ask's   respect the glass.    It's fragile and might break.
Em  G  D  A G D          "Then cut and hurt          and make me cry and fill another lake.

Bm  D  A  Em G D       "So let me know how it tastes to you, and make sure you're clear,
Bm  D  A  Em G D       "And tell a friend and come again.  My place is always here."

{chorus}

 

Bm  D  A  Em G D       At my place glad to see your face.
