Drinking with a Friend
From the album Starter Home
[Intro]
 C   F   C   Am   Gx3
[Verse 1]
COut of the corner Fof my eye
Prettiest girl, she sCaid goodbye
Such a sad day, but whAmere was I?
[Refrain]
Drinking with a frGiend
[Verse 2]
There's a trCain in the station, and we'll hFop on the back
There's nothing to lose, we've got nCothing we lack
When we're rolling this fast, we dAmon't look back
[Refrain]
Drinking with a frGiend
[Verse 3]
CUp in the morning, and there's nFowhere to go
Too sick to feel the wCind that blows
There's only ever been one cAmure I know
[Refrain]
Drinking with a frGiend
[Verse 4]
CSo many things that I wFanted to say
I always found the words that gCot in the way
I looked into your eyes and you tAmurned away
[Refrain]
Drinking with a frGiend
[Interlude]
 C   F   C   Am   Gx3
[Verse 5]
CDown at the bottom and my blFood's run thin
I always intended to stCart again
But I'll never rise aAmbove the din
[Refrain]
Drinking with a frGiend
[Verse 6]
I went oCut to your window as blFack as the coal
The night is empty to sCalve the souls
The price we pay for Amalcohol
[Refrain]
Drinking with a frGiend
[Verse 7]
CNothing to show for nFothing I've done
Someday I'll be a skCeleton
Put me into the ground, let me rAmeach for the sun
[Refrain]
Drinking with a frGiend
[Outro]
 C   F   C   Am   Gx2
