Intro: Em G C5/G D5/A (2x)

Em                    G
Do I have nothing good left to say
C5/G                       D5/A
Do I need whiskey to start fueling my complaints
Em                         G
People love to drink their troubles away
C5/G                         D5/A
Sometimes I feel that I'd be better off that way

Em                       G
'Cause maybe then I could sleep at night
C5/G                   D5/A
I wouldn't lie awake until the morning light
Em                     G
This is something that I'll never control
C5/G                              D5/A
My nerves will be the death of me, I know...

Ponte: Em, G, C5/G, D5/A (2x)

Em                        G
So here's to living life miserable
C5/G                          D5/A
And here's to all the lovely stories that I've told
Em                        G
Maybe drinking wine will validate my sorrow
C5/G                       D5/A
Every man needs a muse and mine could be the bottle

Em            G
Maybe then I could sleep at night
C5/G                    D5/A
I wouldn't lie awake until the morning light
Em                           G
This is something that I'll never control
C5/G                           D5/A
My nerves will be the death of me, I know

C                D                Em
Finally I could hope for a better day
C                       D                        Em
No longer holding on to all the things that cloud my mind
C                            D                   Em
Maybe then the weight of the world wouldn't seem so heavy
C                             D                  Em
But then again, I'll probably always feel this way

Em                           G
At least I know I'll never sleep at night
C5/G                    D5/A
I'll always lie awake until the morning light
Em                           G
This is something that I'll never control
C5/G                           D5/A
My nerves will be the death of me
Em                             G
My nerves will be the death of me
C5/G                           D5/A
My nerves will be the death of me
Em
I know...
