Intro: D   G   D   G


Verse 1:
          D                                              G
I've been thinking of the words I used to say when I was drinking
                                      D
Seems like it's only yesterday when I was heartache
                                          G
I didn't mean to treat you bad, but I was suffering from self-pity that I had
          Em          A
And I was tired and I couldn't stand the pain
               G                 A
I couldn't put that bottle down
                     D          G
'Cause it was easier that way

Verse 2:
             D
Now, I don't wanna be the same man I was back then
               G
'Cause I don't understand all those selfish little plans
                        Em
And when I look into my father?s eyes
        A                                        G                 A
I see a torn and desperate man who couldn't put that bottle down
                     D          G
'Cause it was easier that way
                     D
'Cause it was easier that way


             G                               A
I guess it's torture singing songs about the man I used to be
         G                           A
I wonder if you sometimes see that man inside of me
      D
But I promise, I won't go back to way back then
             G
'Cause I got tired of that selfish little man
        Em           A                                     G                      A
But I'm trying and I hope you understand that it's hard to put that bottle down
                D          G
But it's easier that way
                D          G
But it's easier that way
