Verse 1:

Csus2         G
  Baby, I'm embarrassed
Csus2                      G
  I'm still wearing all my clothes
Csus2                 Em7
 It's my fault, I was careless
                 D
Now I don't know how this goes
Csus2                          G
 I'm a little worried nothin's spinnin'
Csus2                G
 I can walk a steady line
Csus2            Em7
 This unusual condition
         D
Wasn't by design


Chorus 1:

Csus2
Sorry, I'm a little sober
D                       Csus2   
 In the morning I'll be nursing and cursing
   Em/D        D/F#    G
My clarity hangover
Csus2
I didn't mean to leave you swaying
D                 Csus2                       Em/D         
 But now that I've stopped seeing double, you know
                     D/F#    G
There's no sense in staying
Am                     Csus2
Sorry, I'm a little sober


Verse 2:

Csus2         G
 I'm so heavy headed
Csus2                     G
 I tried one foot off the floor
Csus2               Em7
 I know that I'll regret it
                 D
But I don't want any more
Csus2               G
 I wasn't trying to feel this
Csus2                  G
 When I woke up on the street
Csus2              Em7
 With all my weary senses
                 D
Swept back on my feet


Chorus 2:

Csus2
Sorry, I'm a little sober
D                       Csus2   
 In the morning I'll be nursing and cursing
  Em/D         D/F#    G
My clarity hangover
  Csus2
I didn't mean to leave you swaying
D                 Csus2                       Em/D
 But now that I've stopped seeing double, you know
                      D/F#    G
There's no sense in staying
Csus2
Sorry, I'm a little sober
D
Sorry, I'm a little sober

Verse 3:

Csus2                G
 The glow and the forgetting
Csus2              G
 The blurriness of it
Bm                      Em7
 The thing is, I don't know you
            D/F# - D - D/F# - G
I never really did


Chorus 3:

Csus2
Sorry, I'm a little sober
D                       Csus2 
 In the morning I'll be nursing and cursing

My clarity hangover
  Csus2
I didn't mean to leave you swaying
D                 Csus2                       Em/D
 But now that I've stopped seeing double, you know
                      D/F#    G
There's no sense in staying
Am                  Csus2
Sorry, I'm a little sober
