♫ Verse:
                                     C
“Do you ever feel alone in a crowded room
D7                                               G
Alcohol on my breath better put on a little perfume
G
I’m out looking for a man who makes me feel
          C
Like you use to a long time ago
            D7
But you’re out in the street instead of home next to me
                                    G
Planting seeds where nothing will grow

♫ Chorus:
G
So pick your poison
                 C
Why don’t you drink it down
                   D7
Don’t you feel better now
                   G
Able to face the crowd
G
Pick your poison
               C
Come on give into sin
         D7                                          G
If you just sniff one more line then you’ll feel whole again

♫ Verse:
G                                  C
Walk of shame 4 A.M. oh man it’s cold
           D7                                   G
Knees are weak I need a drink this is getting old
G
I use to hold your hand
                      C
But now I hold this bottle so close to my heart
     D7
Use all these strange men just to feel whole again
                               G
But you said that we’d never part

♫ Chorus:
G
So pick your poison
                C
Why don’t you come on down
                D7
To the local bar in town
                G
Just to see who’s around
G
Pick your poison
               C
Misery loves company
         D7                               G
But the drugs just ain’t as fun as they use to be

♫ Verse:
G                                               C
We’re out here getting high because we feel so low
D7                                  G
Oh I need a little powder for my nose
G
Because I’ve been empty for years trying to fill
      C
The void where we both use to live
        D7
And I drink every night just to try to forget
                               G
But I know that I’ll never forgive

♫ Chorus:
G
So pick your poison
         C
Let it drag you down
          D7
Six feet underground
                 G
Never make your mama proud
G
Pick your poison
                C
Come on you’re in too deep
D7                                      G
Them demons in your head they got you losing sleep”
