[Intro]
Am
[Verse 1]
Here I am, I'm the unrecovered Emone
You can Amtalk to me if you want to 
If you want to you can shun Dmme
[Verse 2]
I Amstumble through the streets with my pride and my arrEmogance
I Amspit right in your face when you invite me to Dmdance
I go Ammonths and years at a time terminally Emunique
With my Ampills and my bottle of Dmwine
I am Amvery, very, very, very, very, very, very, very Emweak
[Verse 3]
I Amcan't get out of bed, the hangover's got my Emhead
So I forAmgot to take the garbage out and put the kid to Dmbed
We're Amall wandering around in my Emhouse
Like the Amnight of the living Dmdead
I'm Amsomeone that you can look at and be Emglad
AmYou're not me inDmstead
[Verse 4]
UnderAmneath your sobriety and your piety and your Emquiet
There's a Amhuman being there who's got a Dmspirit 
And Amhas to learn how to Emfly it
The Amcontrols are on the Dmpanel 
And the Ammanual's in the flotation deEmvice
But Amif it comes to using Dmthat 
You've Amalready crashed through thin Emice
[Verse 5]
I'm not Amsaying I'm better than Emyou 
I Amfeel like you're saying you're better than Dmme
You say "AmTough luck I sobered up and now I'm running the Emcompany"
Your AmHigher Power he's like my Dmgod 
He'll Amtake you out in a flash, you'll Emsee
And Amdo the same for all your loved Dmones 
AmAnd the ones like me you Empity

Terre Roche - The Unrecovered One

[Intro]

[Verse 1]

Here I am, I'm the unrecovered one

You can talk to me if you want to

If you want to you can shun me

[Verse 2]

Am Em

I stumble through the streets with my pride and my arrogance

Am Dm

I spit right in your face when you invite me to dance

Am Em

I go months and years at a time terminally unique

Am Dm

With my pills and my bottle of wine

Am Em

I am very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very weak

[Verse 3]

Am Em

I can't get out of bed, the hangover's got my head

Am Dm

So I forgot to take the garbage out and put the kid to bed

Am Em

We're all wandering around in my house

Am Dm

Like the night of the living dead

Am Em

I'm someone that you can look at and be glad

Am Dm

You're not me instead

[Verse 4]

Am Em

Underneath your sobriety and your piety and your quiet

Am Dm

There's a human being there who's got a spirit

Am Em

And has to learn how to fly it

Am Dm

The controls are on the panel

Am Em

And the manual's in the flotation device

Am Dm

But if it comes to using that

Am Em

You've already crashed through thin ice

[Verse 5]

Am Em

I'm not saying I'm better than you

Am Dm

I feel like you're saying you're better than me

Am Em

You say "Tough luck I sobered up and now I'm running the company"

Am Dm

Your Higher Power he's like my god

Am Em

He'll take you out in a flash, you'll see

Am Dm

And do the same for all your loved ones

Am Em

And the ones like me you pity
