CMy mind doesn't Fwork so well these daysC  
CI drink all my Fwaking hours awayC  
GIf I sit here long enough
Gmaybe I think of something 
tChat'll make you stAmayG  
CSomething tells me Fnot think at aCll
CI sit in the darkness sFtaring at the Cwall
GThis loneliness is hell
GI search for drinks and things 
Cto make me AmwellG  
FI spend my lAmife staring 
Gthrough my bloodshot eyesC  
FI'll never knAmow where I belongG  
CWith eyes closed fast I Fplay photographs of yCou
Cyou stare at me and Fwonder how I'm Cdoing
GI tell you that I'm fine
GThat thought echoes through my empty mind
FI close my Ameyes Gagain
CWith barroom bliss aFnd a strangers kiss I'Cm home
CCause no one eFver wants to be aClone
GI doubt that there is a way 
GI'll ever speak the words
Fthat'll make yAmou stGay
CMy mind doesn't Fwork so well these daysC
