C/G G Em Em

[Verse 1]
C/G       G
Rememberin' I promised
          Em
 to forget you now
         Em
But it's rainin' and
 I'm callin' drunk
C/G            G
And my medicine is drowning
        Em
your perspective out
            Em
But I ain't taking any fault
C/G             G
Am I honest still? Am I
                 Em
half the man I used to be
         Em
I doubt it, forget about it,
 whatever
C/G     G       Em         D
It's all the same anyways

[Chorus]
C/G
I ain't proud of all
       G
the punches that I've thrown
D
In the name of someone
 Em
I no longer know
C/G                        G
For the shame of being young,
drunk, and alone
D                         Em
Traffic lights and a transmitter
radio
C/G
I don't like that when
     G
they threw me in the car
D                       Em
I gave your name as my emergency
phone call
           C/G
Honey it, rang and rang,
              G
 even the cops thought you
                          D
 were wrong for hanging up
           Em
I'll dial drunk, I'll die
                C/G
a drunk, I'll die for
     G Em Em
 you

[Verse 2]
C/G            G
I’m untethering from the
                    Em
parts of me you recognize
     Em
From charming to
 alarming in seconds
C/G              G
I’ll be bedridden, I’ll
                Em
 let the pain metastasize
           Em
But that’s morning, oh forget it
C/G             G
And the dial tone
     Em         D
is all I have

Just wait, I swear

Oh, love, why do you
              Em
 do this to yourself?

I’ll rot with all the
                 Em
burnouts in the cell

     C/G
I’ll change my faith,
I’ll kiss the badge
     G
Just wait, I swear
she’ll call me back

Hun, why do you do
            Em    Em
this to yourself?
