[Intro]
D Dmaj7 G
[Verse 1]
D Dmaj7 Bm Bm/A
He walks home alone and thinks about how his whole life has gone
G A
He’s fucked it up again
D Dmaj7
It’s all his fault
D Dmaj7
He knows that he has to tell
Bm Bm/A
She probably knows, he might as well
G A D
It’s all the same it probably saves him pain
[Chorus]
G A
First he cracks and then he splits
Bm
He’s stressed so now he can’t resist
Em A D
The cigarettes he promised her he’d quit
[Verse 2]
D Dmaj7
He found the answers to the questions
Bm Bm/A G
She don’t ask they’re bottled up in – side his flask
A D Dmaj7
So he empties it again
D Dmaj7
Smiles and waves she shoots a grin
Bm Bm/A
She knows she’s too mature for him
G A D
A simple shame she tames with sips of gin
[Chorus]
G A
First he cracks and then he splits
Bm
His fingers smell of cigarettes
Em A D Dmaj7
They’re black with ash so he washes off his hands
G A
She stays quiet, he don’t think
Bm
And pours himself another drink
Em A
It’s stronger than he’ll ever be for her
[Interlude]

They’re black with ash so he washes off his hands
G A
She stays quiet, he don’t think
Bm
And pours himself another drink
G A
It’s stronger than he’ll ever be for her
