Afinação: E A D G B ECapotraste:
4th traste
[Verse 1]
G
When I was sixteen I took a forensics class
G
That taught me 'bout drinking and alcohol poisoning
C
I told myself at that point I'd never ever
G
Touch a drop
G
And I was clean, no for real I mean
G
'Til the final shores of nineteen
C
Halloween at twenty, the day I don't remember at all
 
G
 
[Verse 2]
G
Twenty-one my friends call me alcoholic
G
And sometimes I don't understand why they would do that
C
But then I remember my sock's behind the couch
C
And the dog's gone and taken my hat to the bathroom
 
[Chorus 1]
Em C G
So I'll drink another cider 'cuz I can't stand the taste of vodka on my tongue
Em C G D
Can't stand the taste of whiskey, can't stand the taste of alcohol
Em C G D
I wanna get better and look at life through a vintage camera lens
Em C G D
I wanna see the world how I used to, way back when
Em
Before I started drinking
C
Before I started drinking
G
Before I started drinking
D
Before I start
 
[Verse 3]
G C
Maybe one day I'll stop drinking like back when I was sixteen and different
G C
Maybe I'll put down the whiskey and start remembering every moment
