Originally a Spider Bags song, but I like the Daytrotter version Titus Andronicus did better.
CIf you're gonna be so ill Gtempered, I don't know Fwhy you're still arounCd
CThere ain't no curfew on Ghard living in this poForly painted toCwn
CSo leave the bottle where you Gfound it, and let me lFay here on the grouCnd
CWaking up drunk makes me hGappy, lately yFou just bring me doCwn
CI was drinking when I mGet you, and I'll be drFunk when you leCave
CAnd I'll be drinking to forGget you, I guess I'll Fdo just what I pleCase
CWell a woman is just a mGemory from which the boFttle gives reliCef
CWaking up drunk makes me Ghappy, lately yFou just give me gCrief.
CWaking up drunk makes me Ghappy, and I'm about as hFappy as I can Cbe.
CIn one end and out the oGther, you got a sFister, you got a broCther
CTake the piss, but give a hGoller, I'Fll see you when you lose your coCllier
CAnd I know more about my fGuture than I Fdo about my paCst
CSo if you got something that you wanna tGell me, babyF  
You better make it faCst
FShot of whisky, glass of stout
GThat'll cure a ghost sound
CWaking up drunk makes me hGappy, lately yFou just bring me doCwn
CWhoa-oh you Fjust bring me doCwn X 4

C G F C

If you're gonna be so ill tempered, I don't know why you're still around

C G F C

There ain't no curfew on hard living in this poorly painted town

C G F C

So leave the bottle where you found it, and let me lay here on the ground

C G F C

Waking up drunk makes me happy, lately you just bring me down

C G F C

I was drinking when I met you, and I'll be drunk when you leave

C G F C

And I'll be drinking to forget you, I guess I'll do just what I please

C G F C

Well a woman is just a memory from which the bottle gives relief

C G F C

Waking up drunk makes me happy, lately you just give me grief.

C G F C

Waking up drunk makes me happy, and I'm about as happy as I can be.

C G F C

In one end and out the other, you got a sister, you got a brother

C G F C

Take the piss, but give a holler, I'll see you when you lose your collier

C G F C

And I know more about my future than I do about my past

C G F

So if you got something that you wanna tell me, baby

You better make it fast

Shot of whisky, glass of stout

That'll cure a ghost sound

C G F C

Waking up drunk makes me happy, lately you just bring me down

C F C

Whoa-oh you just bring me down X 4
