intro Em Am x4

Am Dm Am

as hope and promise fades

Am Dm Am

and the sun forgets to rise

Dm Am

i’m lonely and i’m thirsty

Em

but it’s better i stay dry

Am Dm

no more than two drinks away

Am

from crying

Em Am x2

Am Dm Am

stare into the glass

Am Dm Am

and wait for the time to pass

Dm Am

and thank you for the offer

Em

but you know i must decline

Am Dm

no more than two drinks away

Am

from crying

Dm Dsus4 Dm

there used to be a time

Am

when i could hold my head up high

Dm Dsus4 Dm

my life stretched out before me

E

and rivers flowed with wine

Dm Dsus4 Dm

and had my love beside me

Am

and everything was fine

Dm E

but now the ride is over

Am

it’s hard to say goodbye

Am Dm Am

as hope and promise fade

Am Dm Am

and midnight turns to day

Dm Am

i’d love to drown my sorrow

Em

but i cannot tell a lie

Am Dm

no more than two drinks away

Am

from crying
