[Chorus]
 G
I've been over drinkin'
      D
Cause I've been overthinkin'
      A
Cause I get so damn
               Bm
anxious at night
  G                       D
Chemicals and nicotine, friends
ask "how you been?"
    A
And you just learn to
             Bm
say you're alright
 G                       D
Poems and closing time, oh
sweet love of mine
  A                          Bm
I found it so hard to find truth
 G                       D
Poems and closing time, oh
sweet love of mine
 A                         Bm
It'll always just be me and you

[Solo]
G D A Bm x2

[Verse]
       G
Those bassets get richer
          D
while the poor dig ditches
    A                    Bm
to bury their grieving in
     G                     D
and lady dont cheat baby 5am
       A                      Bm
is the reason they're sleeping in
    G
old men build churches so
    D
the kids find worth it
  A                      Bm
something bigger than themselves
        G               D
but the uncorruptable don't exist
        A
and you can't buy your
           Bm
way out of hell

in a world that's
             Bm
growing so cruel
