 (I drink...thirsty)      (I drink...dry)


                  A5
I drink cause I'm thirsty
                  G5
I drink cause I'm dry
                  A5
I'm not yet quite thirty
                    G5
But I feel like I'm dying

                     A5          G5
I drink cause I want to, cause I need to,
        A5         B5           E5
Cause I don't know what else to do
        F#5           C5
With my time, I won't say it
        D5            G5     D5  G5
You can see it in my eyes.

(Same chords)

You drink cause you're lonely
You drink cause you're sad
You always claim every party
Was the best time you've ever had

You drink cause you're scared of
A life of living off your own company
You won't say it but I can see it in your eyes.

Middle 8

A5            C5             G5       G5
Of all of the things I could become
A5       C5             G5     
A lonely drunkard isn't one
D5               C5       C5
Which I would've wished
           G5
When I was young

(Same chords)

Drink has drunk my days away
I tried to live like Hemingway
Life just doesn't work that way
Pills don't kill the pain
They just delay

(Back to Verse Chords)

We drink cause we're scared that
If we should stop
The good times will go away
But the bad times will not
What if it's over and we're sober
And we still feel like we're fixing to die
What then?
Don't say it cause I can see it in your eyes
