[Verse]
Em Bm
I watched her walk right out that front door
Bm Am
And off the front porch into her car
Am
Acted like I've never seen her leave
Am Am Em
I can fix the Chevy, but I can't tune a broken heart
Em Bm
I could have chased her, said I'd change my ways,
Bm Am
But lies is all she's heard
Am Am
All the fight I got left is at the bottom of the bottle
Am Em
But gettin' there's where it hurt
[Chorus]
Em Bm
She said she was leavin' 'cause I'm drinkin'
Bm Am
I'm only drinkin' because she gone
Am Am
And now I'm sittin' here all alone
Am Em
Thinkin' I'ma drink 'til she comes home
Em Bm
She said she was leavin' 'cause I'm drinkin'
Bm Am
I'm only drinkin' because she gone
Am Am
And now I'm sittin' here all alone
Am Em
Thinkin' I'ma drink 'til she come home
[Bridge]
Em Bm Bm Am
Am Am Am Em
[Verse]
Em Bm
And I could quit now, start all over
Bm Am
Make a deal and deal with it sober
Am Am
Turn that bottle over top of that sink
Am Em
Wash the excuses down the drain
Em Bm
Or I could have just one more drink
Bm Am
And dance the night away from this pain
Am Am
Call her bright and early and beg her to come home
Am Em
Cause drinkin' alone just ain't the same
[Chorus]
Em Bm
She said she was leavin' 'cause I'm drinkin'
Bm Am
I'm only drinkin' because she gone
Am Am
And now I'm sittin' here all alone
Am Em
Thinkin' I'ma drink 'til she come home
Em Bm
She said she was leavin' 'cause I'm drinkin'
Bm Am
I'm only drinkin' because she gone
Am Am
And now I'm sittin' here all alone
Am Em
Thinkin' I'ma drink 'til she come home
[Bridge]
Em Bm Bm Am
Am Am Am Em
[Chorus]
Em Bm
She said she was leavin' 'cause I'm drinkin'
Bm Am
I'm only drinkin' because she gone
Am Am
And now I'm sittin' here all alone
Am Em
Thinkin' I'ma drink 'til she come home
Em Bm
She said she was leavin' 'cause I'm drinkin'
Bm Am
I'm only drinkin' because she gone
Am Am
And now I'm sittin' here all alone
Am Em
Thinkin' I'ma drink 'til she come home
