GWell I got empty bottles and legal papers Emwrinkled up all over the floor
Cadd9My pen won't write and my guitar doesn't have a Dsong in it anymore
GWell I can write another love song, yeah, but Emfirst you got to find someone to love
Cadd9I could write another fight song, yeah, but there's Dgot to be something to be proud of and they say
Chorus:
Cadd9Misery love's Dcompany, but it Gdamn sure G/F#ain't lookin' for Emme
I'll Cadd9be alright, I Djust gotta find someone to Cadd9break my Dheart toGnight
GGoing out walkin' on Avenue B and I Emain't comin' back until dawn
Cadd9And find some stranger in a Greenich bar to Dshower my affection upon
GWell maybe she'll stay 'til one fateful day Emwhen we realize we've got nothin' left
Cadd9And maybe I'll find she's messed up my mind and DI can get back to doing what I do best and they say
Chorus:
Cadd9Misery love's Dcompany, but it Gdamn sure G/F#ain't lookin' for Emme
I'll Cadd9be alright, I Djust gotta find someone to Cadd9break my Dheart toGnight
