*so, just a note: with the picking i find it best to do something like bass and than 3
in stead of just strumming, i think it makes the song sound a bit more cabaret like it
supposed to originally... so if you were to be playing Em you would play low B and than 
G and high B... but its a fun song to play around with the picking, so leave a message if
find picking that sounds better :)


Em           C
I'm counting back
                  Am
the number of the steps
                  G
it took for me to get
D           C          D
back on the wagon of the weekend


Em               C
I'll use the autotimer to prove that
G        D         C       D
I'll get home with my imagination
G       D        C           D
if they find the body in the basement
G       D    C                  D
"in the very house that she was raised in!"


Em         C
I'm taking down
                  Am
the number of the Times
                   G
so when we get the sign
     D        C               D
from god I'll be the first to call them


Em         C                      G
I'm taking back the number of the beast
      D    C            D
cause 6 is not a pretty number
G    D       C        D
8 or 3 are definitely better
G    D       C              D
a is for the address on the letter
G     D C  D    Em
to my alcoholic friends


Em         C
I'm trying hard
            Am
not to be ashamed
                G
not to know the name
   D      C         D
of who is waking up beside me
G      D         C             D
or the date, the season or the city
G      D         C             D
but at least the ceilings very pretty
G      D       C          D
and if you are holding it against me


Em            C
I'll be on my best behavior
Am               G      D
taking shots for mother nature
Em              C
once my fist is in the cupboard
Am            G       D           D....
love is never falling over


G        D        C         D
should I choose a noble occupation
G    D       C            D
if I did I'd only show up late and
G        D          C                D
sick and they would stare at me with hatred
G       D    C                D      G
C D     G
plus my only natural talents wasted on my alcoholic friends
   D C D     G
my alcoholic friends
    D     C D   G
the party never ends
   D C D     Em
my alcoholic friends
