Capo 4
 
Intro
 
A  E  D  A  F#m  G  D
 
A
Feels like a Friday night 
         F#m              G
But it's only Monday afternoon
                D
Still there's a party goin' on in my livin' room 
A
It's just me and fifth of Beam 
F#m                          G
Swayin' to the sounds of old George Jones
                D
And it won't be long 'til the whole damn bottle's gone 
 
A                         F#m
And I know it might sound sad 
                                    G
But to tell the truth it ain't half bad
 
I love my misery
      D
Gonna drown my blues in a sea of whiskey 
 
 
    E         A
I'm drinkin' again 
D      E                         A
Tryin' hard to hide the pain I'm in 
         D           C#m               Bm               A
So don't give me any shit, I know just what I'm gettin' in
             G                      D
Sure, it's a sin but I don't really give a damn
             A      F#m   G   D
I'm drinkin' again 
 
 
A
I've got no friends to call 
F#m                                     G
They've all straightened up and settled down
    D
And they don't ever wanna hang around 
A
But I guess I understand 
F#m                            G
This house ain't much for company 
              D
Smells like a cesspool here, It's stinkin' nasty 
 
A
And you might say I'm bad off 
F#m                               G
But I chose the road I strumbled across
                   D
I picked my poison Give me another shot of bourbon 
 
          E         A
Cause I'm drinkin' again
D      E                         A
Tryin' hard to hide the pain I'm in
         D           C#m               Bm              A
So don't give me any shit, I know just what I'm gettin in 
             G                      D
Sure, it's a sin but I don't really give a damn
              A
I'm drinkin' again 
 
     A
Well fortunately for me I find relief
         F#m
When the world is weighin' down on me 
        G
I pop a top, I take a shot, I drop a pill
         D
Turn the radio up, sit back and chill
A
Pretend my life is a bed of roses 
F#m
Try not to notice all the ghosts
         G
That are hauntin me and tauntin me 
                 D
And wantin me to cut my wrists 
 
So they can watch me bleed
    A
And laugh at me, as I scream in agony 
F#m
I get high for the sake of my family 
          G
Cause the alcohol is all that's helpin me 
   D
To cope since I went broke and lost my hope 
A
I kicked my girl to the curb of the road 
           F#m
You know I couldn't afford to support us both 
     G
Hell I'm not rich, don't have a good job 
   D
Do construction work with this dude named Bob
            A
And he's an ass. Yells at me all the time 
     F#m
Pays minimum wage on overtime
           G
Still he's got it made, drives an Escalade 
         D
And gets two hundred times what I get paid 
              A
But that's okay. 
 
I'll drink to his health and ruin mine
F#m
I'll chug liquor and he can sip red wine 
            G
And I'll be fine. Trying to find some peace 
          D
I'll quit payin' my rent and I'll break my lease
          A
I'll live out on the streets and beg for change 
F#m
Crawl in a box when it starts to rain 
   G
Forget my family and my friends 
           D
Forget the world, ya'll, I'm drinkin' again 
 
    E         A
I'm drinkin' again
D      E                         A
Tryin' hard to hide the pain I'm in
         D           C#m               Bm              A
So don't give me any shit, I know just what I'm gettin in
             G               D
Sure, it's a sin, but I done lost control 
        A
And I'm drinkin' again y'all 
    F#m             G   D
I'm drinkin' again 
 
I'm drinkin' again
 
I'm drinkin' again
              A
I'm drinkin' again
 
                F#m
I done said goodbye
                   G          D
To the twelve-step program 
 
I'm drinkin' again
    A
I'm drinkin'
