Liquor store cashier knows my name
Em                            C      G
Calls it out to ask me if I'm doing okay
                              C        G
Throw a twenty at him, he can keep the change
      Em                              C            G
But I gotta get this Bulleit from the bottle to my brain

If I had a needle I would put it in my veins

I got a wife works so damn hard
Em                          C               G
She makes the money while I spend it in the dark
                          C          G
She cries at home while I cry in the car
      Em                         C                 G

We sleep so close but she feels so far

I wish that where I am was where I've been

I wish that where I am was where I've been

Babe it ain't easy, it's a hell of a fight
   Em                        C            G
To argue with a demon almost every single night
                              C      G
Silver tongue got me thinkin' he's alright
     Em                      C          G
So I get real drunk while he checks the time
   Em                   C      G
On double vodkas with a little lime

So today I'm trying to stay away from alcohol
                                  C        G
I'm sweatin' and it feels like my heads on wrong
Em                               C
Hands are gettin' shaky, it's my own damn fault
   Em                              C        G
If you wanna leave, well that's my own damn fault


Verse 5:
G
When you go, I'll remember your eyes

And how they sparkle like rain in a sunny sky
G
But when I think your little heart is set
            Em                   C       G
Well, I can feel your hand on my shaking chest
Em                       C          G
Open up my eyes and your cheeks are wet
           Em                     G
And you're asking God above for a little rest
C                                     G    C
Once upon a time I wasn't such a mess

Babe, I don't wanna do it again
G      C
Babe, I don't wanna do it again (Don't wanna do it)
G                          C
Babe, I don't wanna do it again
G                          C
Babe, I don't wanna do it again
