[Verse 1]

I pray when I'm drunk, I pray for guidance

To get me from the sewer where I am

Yeah, I don't know who to, I pray to someone

To get me on my way and give a damn

Yeah, I pray when I'm drunk, pray when I'm sober

I'm grateful for the man than I've become

C G

Yeah, I swarm with the bees and I booze with the mackerel

D G

And I think about you every time I strum

[Chorus]

Some things can change

G D

Some things you cannot change

All things are strange

[Verse 2]

I pray when I'm drunk, I feel the hammer

Of judgement as it smashes on my soul

Yeah, I'm glad that I'm drunk, I feel more open

To spiritual leanings that I hold

Yeah, I'm glad when I'm drunk, glad when I'm sober

I'm grateful for the hangover that's gone

C G

And I'm grateful to you, and all the pickings

D G

From the carcass of the life that I came from

D G

From the carcass of the life that I came from

[Chorus]

Some things can change

G D

Some things you cannot change

All things are strange
