When I was Drinking (Mess?)

Ewhen (022100@1)i was drinking
Awhen (x02220@1)i was with you
E (022100@1)	Aliving (x02220@1)it up when the rent was due
C#m (x13321@4) B7 (x21202@1)  Awith (x02220@1)nothing and no one to live up to 
Eb7 (x32310@4)G#myou (133111@4)and me dying on the vine
Eb7 (x32310@4)G#mholding (133111@4)hands and drinking wine
A (x02220@1)	    E (022100@1)     A (x02220@1)E (022100@1)now i'm not the same girl i left behind with you 


twelve bars behind us
and twelve bars to go
bottles of beer lined up in a row
one for each hour you didn't show 
you and me dying everyday
getting high just to pass away
but that's not the reason i couldn't stay with you 

now i am sober
now i'm alone
three years have gone by since you have gone
letting you go, letting me go on 
but i'll raise a glass now to you and me
to to lift me higher so i can see
which of these blessings are killing me
