C#
I'm trippin over dumb drunks at a party
A                  B                   C#
My girlfriend just ran off with the DJ
C#
I gave her everything, but she refused it

It don't matter, she don't know how to
      C#
Use it

My confidence is dwindling

Look at the shape I'm in

I'll have the usual

Fifty silhouettes tumblin' on the dance
Floor
A              B
Pink elephants fallin' through a trap

Door
C#
Sixty cigarettes a day 'cause I'm nervous
A              B               C#
When will that chick serve us?

I used to be a good boy, livin' the good
Life

But fifty thousand kisses later she was a
 Housewife

She was good, I was unkind

I'll have the usual

Got a drink tab

A fifth of whisky keeps the doctor away

A little more and it's judgment day

I had a future, but she just passed out

I'm gonna drink 'til I seek what it is

I'll have the usual on the rocks with a
Twist
