C F C Am G x3

Verse 1:
C                 F
Out of the corner of my eye
                     C
Prettiest girl, she said goodbye
                      Am
Such a sad day, but where was I?

Refrain:
                  G
Drinking with a friend

Verse 2:
            C                              F
There's a train in the station, and we'll hop on the back
                                    C
There's nothing to lose, we've got nothing we lack
                                  Am
When we're rolling this fast, we don't look back

Refrain:
                  G
Drinking with a friend

Verse 3:
C                               F
Up in the morning, and there's nowhere to go
                      C
Too sick to feel the wind that blows
                            Am
There's only ever been one cure I know

Refrain:
                  G
Drinking with a friend

Verse 4:
C                      F
So many things that I wanted to say
                               C
I always found the words that got in the way
                                 Am
I looked into your eyes and you turned away

Refrain:
                  G
Drinking with a friend

Interlude:
C F C Am G x3

Verse 5:
C                           F
Down at the bottom and my blood's run thin
                       C
I always intended to start again
                     Am
But I'll never rise above the din

Refrain:
                  G
Drinking with a friend

Verse 6:
        C                      F
I went out to your window as black as the coal
                       C
The night is empty to salve the souls
                     Am
The price we pay for alcohol

Refrain:
                  G
Drinking with a friend

Verse 7:
C                    F
Nothing to show for nothing I've done
                    C
Someday I'll be a skeleton
                                Am
Put me into the ground, let me reach for the sun

Refrain:
                  G
