My chickadee, my passion flower, show me the way to the happy hour
From "I don't like to see that" to "is this really what they mean by 'Happy Hour'?" is very much the same, I think.
Then some strumming in C - D - Bb:

The line... suicidal... fine... crossed it... lost it... social kick... gauging-stick of survival.
Here comes the bass, I mute he power chords D# - E . F# and then move to same
chords to try to get something somewhat similar, trying to play as raspy as possible.
After this freestyle version of the bridge we come to another verse similar to the
first two ones, from "Here's to the circus" to "is this really what they mean by happy hour..."
And then the long finale repeats C-D with some Dsus4 thrown in.

Put on the greasepaint, we're getting ready for Happy Hour.
Enjoy! Improvements are welcome.
