have visited me many times to talk about it

Bb                F
  They say to me..  I gotta leave it
Gm        D#                Bb        F
  I gotta leave it.. It's a bad habit for a man

Bb                 F
  But when I try,     to leave it
Gm                D#                 Bb           F
  my friends keep telling me.. I'm a fool amongst fools

  Now I'm a slave,   a slave
Gm    D#            Bb     F
I'm a slave.. I'm a liquor slave

Bb             F
  I'm a slave,   a slave
Gm      D#             Bb     F
  I'm a slave.. Just a liquor slave

Bb               F
I have lost my dignity I had before
Gm         D#    Bb      F
 trying to please everybody

Bb                 F
Some say to me yo yo I look better when I'm drunk
Gm            D#          Bb      F
 Some say no no no I look bad you know

Bb              F
Sometimes I cry.. I cry
Gm            D#    Bb              F
  but my crying never helps me none 'Cos now


Chorus:
I am a slave, a slave
I'm a slave
I'm just a liquor slave
I am a slave, a prisoner
I'm a slave
Just a liquor slave


Every night when I'm
coming back home
My wife gets worried
'cos she knows
Shes got double trouble
coming home
Sometimes I cry
I cry lord I cry
But my crying
never helps me
