Capo 2
[Verse]
-G-- Once upon a lonely tCime, she swore she'd never let you  Gdown
You held her tight without a Acare in mind while she did her runnin' D'round
At first you wouldn't face the Ctruth, you loved her too much to  Glet go
And though the story had to Cend, you wanna be her fool a- Dgain
Friend there's something you Cshould know  D  C| G--- she'll have you back
[Chorus]
Back to drinkin' in Fno time,  Cback to walkin' on youGr  knees
Boy open up your eyes and Asee the light, some things just aren't meant to Dbe
I understand how she can Cget to you, 'cause she's made more than one man  Emblind
So try and face the cold hard  Cfact, she would gladly have yoDu back, back to drinkin' iCn nGo time
[Solo]

[Verse]
It just don't make no sense to Cme to play a game you'll Gnever win
You asked me here for my ad- Cvice, you say she wouldn't break you Dtwice
Friend you'd better think a- G-gain,  D  C| C--- 'cause she'll have you back
[Chorus]
Back to drinkin' in Fno time,  Cback to walkinG' on your knees
Boy open up your eyes and  Asee the light, some things just aren't meant tDo be
I understand how she can Cget to you, 'cause she's made more than one man  Emblind
So try and face the cold hard  Cfact, she would gladly have yoDu back, back to drinkin' iCn nGo time
[Tag]
So try and face the cold hard Cfact, she would gladly have you Dback, --- back to drinkin' in no time
