G
Last night I got drunk
E
Waiting at The Boxcar like you wanted
I waited, you called then you never made it
C/G D
I'm just sat alone, tryin’ pick it up and move along
G
You've said you're ready for a long time
E
But you're on a roll of making fine
C/G
Let me be no other
A7
Living like another sip and I'll be fine
C/G
But then I'm coming off again
A7
Wouldn't even remember that same look you're hiding there
C/G
I never seem to knock it anyhow
Knock it back and pow
D
Amazing, I cave in
As all my worries slip away again
G
One for the party baby
E
Puff on the rolled drum and
C/G
Knock back a drink

There's nobody home

Waking up Monday only to realize

That your Saturday self ain't one you like

But I get by don't you know

And came to know of all things passing
