 C#
Feels like a Friday night 
             A#m                    B
But it's only Monday afternoon 
                       F#
Still there's a party goin' on in my livin' room 
C#
It's just me and fifth of Beam 
A#m                                         B
Swayin' to the sounds of old George Jones 
                         F#
And it won't be long 'til the whole damn bottle's gone 

C#                                          A#m 
And I know it might sound sad 
                                                  B
But to tell the truth it ain't half bad 

I love my misery 
              F#
Bonna drown my blues in a sea of whiskey 

          G#       C#
I'm drinkin' again 
 F#       G#                                    C#
Tryin' hard to hide the pain I'm in 


                F#                   Fm                 D#m
So don't give me any shit, I know just what I'm gettin' in 
                  B                                F#
Sure, it's a sin but I don't really give a damn 
                      C#        A#m          B       F#
I'm drinkin' again 

C#
I've got no friends to call 
A#m                                                         B
They've all straightened up and settled down 
        F#
And they don't ever wanna hang around 
C#
But I guess I understand 
A#m                                        B 
This house ain't much for company 
                        F#
Smells like a cesspool here 

It's stinkin' nasty 
C#
And you might say I'm bad off 
A#m                                             B
But I chose the road I strumbled across 
 
I picked my poison 
F#
Give me another shot of bourbon 
                  G#         C#
Cause I'm drinkin' again 
F#        G#                                  C# 
Tryin' hard to hide the pain I'm in 


                F#                Fm                  D#m         C#
So don't give me any shit, I know just what I'm gettin in 
                  B                             F#
Sure, it's a sin but I don't really give a damn 
                    C#
I'm drinkin' again 
          C#
Well fortunately for me I find relief 
                     A#m  
When the world is weighin' down on me 
             B
I pop a top, I take a shot, I drop a pill 
               F#
Turn the radio up, sit back and chill 
C#
Pretend my life is a bed of roses 
A#m
Try not to notice all the ghosts 
                 B
That are hauntin me and tauntin me 
                            F#
And wantin me to cut my wrists 

So they can watch me bleed 
        C#    
And laugh at me, as I scream in agony 
A#m
I get high for the sake of my family 
                  B
Cause the alcohol is all that's helpin me 
      F#
To cope since I went broke and lost my hope 
C#
I kicked my girl to the curb of the road 
                    A#m
You know I couldn't afford to support us both 
         B
Hell I'm not rich, don't have a good job 
       F#
Do construction work with this dude named Bob 
                    C#
And he's an ass. Yells at me all the time 
            A#m 
Pays minimum wage on overtime 
               B
Still he's got it made, drives an Escalade 
               F#
And gets two hundred times what I get paid 
                    C#
But that's okay. 

I'll drink to his health and ruin mine 
A#m 
I'll chug liquor and he can sip red wine 
                B
And I'll be fine. Trying to find some peace 
               F#
I'll quit payin' my rent and I'll break my lease 
             C#
I'll live out on the streets and beg for change 
A#m
Crawl in a box when it starts to rain 
      B
Forget my family and my friends 
                  F#
Forget the world, ya'll, I'm drinkin' again 
         G#       C#
I'm drinkin' again 

F#        G#                                    C#
Tryin' hard to hide the pain I'm in 
               F#                  Fm                  D#m        C#
So don't give me any shit, I know just what I'm gettin in 
                  B                       F#
Sure, it's a sin, but I done lost control 
              C# 
And I'm drinkin' again y'all 
      A#m               B    F#      
I'm drinkin' again 
                   C#
I'm drinkin' again... 
                            A#m  
I done said goodbye 
                              B               F#
To the twelve-step program 
         C#
I'm drinkin' again...
