Intro:

D


Verse 1:
D                                      Em
If I could I would, stay drunk all the time
                    G                   A
but then again, I'd never, never get to know
                    D
this sober heart of mine
                            D
All of my friends would be shadows
                         Em
leave me alone at closin time.
                     G
My tab would be real high
                      A
and I would feel real low
                          D
when they turn on all the lights

Chorus:
            Fm
If drunken words are sober thoughts
               G
well I'd tell you what's on my mind
Em
purge the pride and the pain
G                        A
that I drown in when I'm dry

Verse 2:
                           D
Speaking cursive with the slur
                     Em
Speaking curses is a crime
           G                       A
To a sober man with a badge in his hand
              D
Reading me my rights
                      D
Oh now just because I can
                  Em
That don't mean I should
              G                         A
Forever lasts forever if I never get to know
                    D
this sober heart of mine


Chorus:
                D
Oh if I could I would
                   Em
Stay drunk all the time
             G                   A
I guess I'll never, ever get to know
                    D
this sober heart of mine.
            G                  A
Guess I'll never, ever get to know

this sober heart
    D
of mine
