Verse 
         E5                    C#5                B5
I don't care who you've been sleeping with these days
                 E5                                          
You're outta my hair
                    C#5             B5            E5           
It's growing just above my smiling face that I wear
                C#5             B5                            
Every night I drink myself to sleep
      A5                                                     
Not thinking about you
      B5            A5           E5                              
Not thinking about anything at all

Verse
         E5                    C#5               B5             
I don't care who you've been dining with these days
                E5                                           
It's more than fair
                C#5          B5                              
Much rather be drinking anyways
           E5                                                  
With my friend Peter
              C#5          B5                                  
Who lives so fucking far away
     A5                                                      
Yet not as far as you
       B5                    A5                E5                
Even though you live right down my fucking street

Chorus
         A5     B5                    E5                          
And I'm tired    of sleeping with myself
     A5     B5                                     E5             
I'm tired, all these drinks and drugs no longer help
     A5        B5                           A5                   
I'm tired of lying about not thinking of you
                 B5         A5               E5                  
Maybe my friend Peter can tell me what to do

         E5                    C#5              B5               
I don't care who you've been kissing on these days
                E5                                           
It's out of my hands
                     C#5              B5                     
and in my mouth with such a pleasant taste
          E5                    C#5           B5               
I need a beer to wash it all away without a trace
                A5                                           
And then I'll drink 23 more
               B5           A5              E5                   
To wipe this stupid smile off my fucking face

Chorus
         A5     B5                    E5                          
And I'm tired    of sleeping with myself
     A5     B5                                     E5             
I'm tired, all these drinks and drugs no longer help
     A5        B5                           A5                   
I'm tired of lying about not thinking of you
                 B5         A5               E5                  
Maybe my friend Peter can tell me what to do
