G C Am D
G C
You used to feel like a smoker
Am
Shivering in the cold
D
Waiting outside the bar
G
'Till the opener's over
C
But now you feel like a drinker
Am
Twenty days off the sauce
D
Down at the liquor store
C
Trying to call your sponsor
D G Em
You used to feel like the forest fire burning
Bm C
But now you feel like a child
D G C Am D G
Throwing tantrums for your turn
C
You used to sound like a prophet
Am
And everyone wanted to know
D
How you could tell the truth
G
Without losing that soft glow
C
But now you feel like a salesman
Am
Closing another deal
D
Or some drunk ship captain
C
Raging after the white whale
D G Em
You used to feel like the forest fire burning
Bm C
But now you feel like a child
D C
Throwing tantrums and then some
D G
You used to feel like the prodigal returning
Em Bm C
But now, now you hate what you've made
D C D G
And you want to watch it burn
