(Repeat Chord Progression) I've been sleeping in a motel off 95. I don't really mind it much. The clerk at the desk is nice. Chorus: A E He pours me a coffee and asks me if it's been a long night. (Repeat A and E) Verse 2: E G# A B C# (Repeat Chord Progression Again) I found a bar that's just outside the township line. I go there most every night. I drank my last paycheck dry and outside, a homeless man asks me for change and I look him straight in his eyes. He stops to apologize. Chorus: (Same as above chorus) Tells me god's got a plan for me and that it'll be alright. I didn't know that I looked that pathetic Verse 3: (Same chord progression as other verses) The owner's been giving me a break on my rent this week. He says that I'm good for it. I joke how I'm probably but I came up short again and nobody's laughing. I'll sneak out at 2 am. I can't do it honestly. Chorus: Same I know I'm a coward and I feel a bad night coming. I didn't know that I looked that pathetic. Bridge: E A B C# So, pour me another drink for a daughter I'll never meet, a wife who don't love me and this cold cup of coffee. E A B Pour me another drink and I'll count my blessings. A B E I've got a half tank of gas left and this bottle ain't empty.
