[Verse]
Cadd9 C
Am I better off dead
Am G
Am I better off a quitter
Cadd9 C
They say I'm better off now
Am G
Than I ever was with her
F Am G
As they take me to my local down the street
Em F Am G
I'm smiling but I'm dying trying not to drag my feet
Cadd9 C Am G
They say a few drinks will help me to forget her
Cadd9 C Am G
But after one too many I know that I'm never
F Am G
Only they can see where this is gonna end
Em F Am G
But they all think I'm crazy but to me it's perfect sense
[Chorus]
C
And my mates are all there trying to calm me down
G
'Cause I'm shouting your name all over town
Am
I'm swearing if I go there now
F
I can change your mind, turn it all around
C
And I know that I'm drunk but I'll say the words
G
And she'll listen this time even though they're slurred
Am
Dial her number and confess to her
F
I'm still in love but all I heard was nothing
Cadd9 C Am G
[Verse 2]
Cadd9 C Am G
So I stumble there, along the railings and the fences
Cadd9 C Am G I know if I'm face to face that she'll come to her senses F Am G Every drunk step I take leads me to her door Em F If she sees how much I'm hurting Am G She'll take me back for sure [Chorus] C And my mates are all there trying to calm me down G 'Cause I'm shouting your name all over town Am I'm swearing if I go there now F I can change your mind, turn it all around C And I know that I'm drunk but I'll say the words G And she'll listen this time even though they're slurred Am Dial her number and confess to her F I'm still in love but all I heard was nothing C G She said nothing Am F Oh I wanted words but all I heard was nothing C Oh I got nothing Nothing G I got nothing Nothing Am F Oh I wanted words but all I heard was nothing [Bridge] Em F C Oh sometimes love is intoxicating Em F C Oh you're coming down your hands are shaking Em F C When you realise there's no one waiting Em F
