[Verse]
A
Fall prey to the blizzard head
D Amaj E
Wrapped my hand around the glass again
F#m D
We all thought that I might change as I got older
A
Fell down and nothing bled
D Amaj E
Wrapped in cotton alcohol again
F#m D
To the hilt I hear from the prick upon my shoulder
A
Free pour the fruitless thoughts
D Amaj E
It's far too late to talk so much but
E F#m D
Still not giving up though I wish that I was sober
[Chorus]

Forgive me I can't speak straight

A
Choke down the gateway drug
D A
Opened the gates, in came the flood, it comes
E F#m D
Like a blush of love, it hits me without warning
A
Long nights of getting lost
D A
I walk beneath the bridge I don't know
E F#m D
I need black suit for tomorrow, I'm in mourning
A
My love you should know
D A
The best of me left hours ago so
E F#m D
Shove it rag into my mouth and let me smoulder
A
Fallout and the damage done
D A
I can't un-sing the things I've sung
E F#m D
Still not giving up though I wish that I was sober
[Chorus]

Oh come and shake me till I'm dry

Oh I wish that I was sober

Oh come to me and kill the night off
