Verse 1

E minorEm   A minorAm   E minorEm    A minorAm
So open promise fades
    E minorEm   A minorAm   E minorEm   A minorAm
and the sun forgets to rise
  C majorC       E minorEm
I'm lonely and I'm thirsty
     A minorAm      E minorEm
but it's better I stay dry
        E minorEm     A minorAm
Never more than two drinks away
   G minorGm
from crying

Verse 2

E minorEm  A minorAm    E minorEm    A minorAm
Stare into the glass
  E minorEm      A minorAm   E minorEm   A minorAm
and wait for the time to pass
  C majorC         E minorEm
And thank you for the offer
    A minorAm     E minorEm
but you know I must decline
        E minorEm     A minorAm
Never more than two drinks away
   G minorGm
from crying


Bridge

   C majorC      E minorEm
There used to be a time
       A minorAm       E minorEm
When I could hold my head up high
  C majorC         E minorEm
My life stretched out before me
  A minorAm         E minorEm
and rivers flowed with wine
 C majorC      E minorEm
I had my love beside me
  A minorAm       E minorEm
and everything was fine
  C majorC    E minorEm
But now the ride is over
   A minorAm
It's hard to say goodbye


Verse 3

E minorEm   A minorAm   E minorEm    A minorAm
So open promise fades
  E minorEm    A minorAm    E minorEm   A minorAm
and midnight turns to day
  C majorC        E minorEm
I'd love to drown my sorrow
   A minorAm      E minorEm
but I cannot tell a lie
        E minorEm     A minorAm
Never more than two drinks away
   G minorGm
from crying
