[Verse 1]
     C           G           C
When I get drunk and talk to God
                    G                  C
I say I'm sorry for all the things I'm not
       F                      C             F
I mean every word I say and I promise I can change
     C           G             C
When I get drunk and talk with God

[Verse 2]
     C                    G             C
When I talk to God I tell Him why we're through
                                G          C
I tell Him all the things I did and didn't do
         F                           C                  F
I'll say I can't be alone, He'll say son you're on your own
            C                    G             C
'Cause when I talk to God I tell Him why we're through

[Chorus]
  G                       G/B            F              C
I wish that I could go to church but I'm too ashamed of me
  G                                  F                  G
I hate the fact it takes a bottle to get me on my knees
      C                                            F
And I hope He'll forgive the things you ain't for- got
     C           G           C
When I get drunk and talk to God

[Verse 3]
     C                     G           C
When I talk to God I thank Him for the time
                              G                 C
All those precious years that you were mine all mine
  F                          C             F
I know He's a busy man He'll help me if He can
        C                     G           C
So when I talk to God I thank Him for the time

[Chorus]
  G                       G/B            F              C
I wish that I could go to church but I'm too ashamed of me
  G                                  F                  G
I hate the fact it takes a bottle to get me on my knees
      C                                            F
And I hope He'll forgive the things you ain't for- -got
     C           G           C
When I get drunk and talk to God

F        C           G           F   G/D C
Oh, when I get drunk and talk to God
