Em Em  Am Am       Em Em       Am Am            Em Em
I'm counting back the number of the steps
Am Am Em Em B7 B7 C C B7 B7
it took for me to get back on the wagon of the weekend
Em Em Am Am Em Em Am Am G G
I'll use the autotimer to prove that I'll
Am Am C C D D
get home with my imagination
G G Am Am C C D D
if they find the body in the basement
G G Am Am C C D D
in the very house that she was raised in

Em Em Am Am Em Em Am Am Em Em
I'm taking down the number of the times
Am Am Em Em B7 B7 C C B7 B7
so when we get the sign from god I'll be the first to call them
Em Em Am Am Em Em Am Am G G
I'm taking back the number of the beast
Am Am C C D D
cause six is not a pretty number
G G Am Am C C D D
eight or three are definitely better
G G Am Am C C D D
A A is for the address on the letter
G G Am Am C C D D Em Em Am Am Em Em Am Am B7 B7
to my alcoholic friends

Em Em Am Am Em Em Am Am Em Em
I'm trying hard not to be ashamed
Am Am G G Am Am C C D D
not to know the name of who is waking up beside me
G G Am Am C C D D
or the date, the season, or the city
G G Am Am C C D D
but at least the ceiling's very pretty
G G Am Am C C D D
and if you are holding it against me
Em Em B7 B7 C C B7 B7
I'll be on my best behavior
Em Em B7 B7 C C B7 B7
taking shots for mother nature
Em Em B7 B7 C C B7 B7
once my fist is in the cupboard
Em Em B7 B7 C C B7 B7
love is never falling over

(repeat intro riff) Em Em Am Am B7 B7

G G Am Am C C D D
Should I choose a noble occupation?
G G Am Am C C D D
If I did I'd only show up late and
G G Am Am C C D D
sick and they would tear at me with hatred
G G Am Am C C D D
plus my only natural talent's wasted
G G Am Am C C D D G G
on my alcoholic friends
Am Am C C D D G G
my alcoholic friends
Am Am C C D D G G
the party never ends
Am Am C C D D Em Em
my alcoholic friends
