Verse 1

             G/B                 C     
It's been a long night drinking whiskey
             Em7          D               C
And I don't drink, so my head is turned around
              G/B               C
After a long flight to another city
         Em7              D                C
I can't think because my head is off the ground
          G/B                C
And that night came falling down


Chorus
          G                 C                 G                C
I spilled red wine on the carpet, letting it sink in deep for days
                Em7        C                         G           C
So if you ever fall into dementia, it won't let you forget
Em7      D      C


Verse 2
           G/B                   C
I spent a long time swimming to depression
        Em7             D/F#  D        C
It's a place that will never leave my hand
         G/B                     C
Never a hard time, more like motivation
       Em7          D/F#        D         C
Now I blink, take a breath and climb the stairs
          G/B               C
And that night gets lost in air


Chorus
          G                 C                 G                C
I spilled red wine on the carpet, letting it sink in deep for days
                Em7        C                         G           C
So if you ever fall into dementia, it won't let you forget
