Intro - D5 B5 A5 x2

[Verse 1]
     D5
Am I better off dead
     B5           A5
Am I better off a quitter
             D5
They say I'm better off now
       B5       A5
Than i ever was with her
        G5             B5               A5
As they take me to my local down the street
    B5      A5       G5            B5             A5
I'm smiling but I'm dying trying not to drag my feet

     D5                     B5         A5
They say a few drinks will help me to forget her
    D5                    B5            A5
But after one too many I know that I'm never
     G5                  B5            A5
Only they can see where this is gonna end
    B5       A5         G5            B5              A5
But they all think I'm crazy but to me it's perfect sense

[Chorus]
       D5
And my mates are all there trying to calm me down
           A5                                B5
'Cause I'm shouting your name all over town

I'm swearing if i go there now
G5
I can change your mind turn it all around

      D5
And I know that I'm drunk but I'll say the words
           A5                                          B5
And she'll listen this time even though there slurred

Dial her number and confess to her
    G5                 A5               D5
I'm still in love but all i heard was nothing


[Verse 2] (same chords as Verse 1)
So I stumble there, along the railings and the fences
I know if I'm face to face that she'll come to her senses 
Every drunk step and path leads me to her door
If she sees how much I'm hurting
She'll take me back for sure

[Chorus]
       D5
And my mates are all there trying to calm me down
           A5                                B5
'Cause I'm shouting your name all over town

I'm swearing if i go there now
G5
I can change your mind turn it all around

      D5
And I know that I'm drunk but I'll say the words
           A5                                          B5
And she'll listen this time even though there slurred

Dial her number and confess to her
    G5                 A5               D5
I'm still in love but all i heard was nothing

(Same chords as chorus)
She said nothing
Oh I wanted words but all I heard was nothing
Oh I got nothing
Nothing
I got nothing
Nothing
Oh I wanted words but all I heard was nothing

[Verse 3]
   D5                             G5 A5 B5 D5
Oh sometimes love is intoxicating
D5                                           G5 A5 B5 D5
Oh you're coming down your hands are shaking
D5                                G5 A5 B5 D5
When you realise there's no one waiting

(same as Verse 1)
Am I better off dead
Am I better off a quitter
They say I'm better off now
Than I ever was with her

[Chorus]
       D5
And my mates are all there trying to calm me down
           A5                                B5
'Cause I'm shouting your name all over town

I'm swearing if i go there now
G5
I can change your mind turn it all around

      D5
And I know that I'm drunk but I'll say the words
           A5                                          B5
And she'll listen this time even though there slurred

Dial her number and confess to her
    G5                 A5               D5
I'm still in love but all i heard was nothing

(same chords as chorus)
She said nothing
Oh I wanted words but all I heard was nothing
Oh I got nothing
Nothing
I got nothing
Nothing
Oh I wanted words but all I heard was nothing
Oh I got nothing
I got nothing
I got nothing
