Intro
[Em] [G] [C/G] [G/B] [D6add9/F#]
Verse 1
[Em]Do I have nothing good[G] left to say
[C/G]Do I need whiskey to start [G/B]fueling my [D6add9/F#]complaints
[Em]People love to drink their [G]troubles away
[C/G]Sometimes I feel that I'd be [G/B]better off that way[D6add9/F#]
Chorus
[Em]Cause maybe then I could [G]sleep at night
[C/G]I wouldn't lie awake [G/B]until the morning [D6add9/F#]light
[Em]This is something that I'll [G]never control
[C/G]My nerves will be the death of [G/B]me I [D6add9/F#]know
[Em] [G] I knoooooow [C/G] I [G/B]know[D6add9/F#]
Verse 2
[Em]So here's to living life[G] miserable
[C/G]And here's to all the lonely [G/B]stories that I've [D6add9/F#]told
[Em]Maybe drinking wine would [G]validate my sorrow
[C/G]Every man needs a muse and [G/B]mine could be [D6add9/F#]the bottle
Chorus
[Em]Maybe then I could[G] sleep at night
[C/G]I wouldn't lie awake [G/B]until the morning [D6add9/F#]light
[Em]This is something that I'll [G]never control
[C/G]My nerves will be the death of[G/B] me I [D6add9/F#]know
Bridge
[C/G]Finally I could [Dadd4add9/A]hope for a better [Em]day
[C/G]No longer holding on to [Dadd4add9/A]all the things that [Em]cloud my mind
[C/G]Maybe then the [Dadd4add9/A]weight of the world wouldn't [Em]seem so heavy
But then [C/G]again I'll probably [Dadd4add9/A]always feel this [Em]way
Chorus 2
[Em]At least I know I'll never[G] sleep at night
[C/G]I'll always lie awake [G/B]until the [D6add9/F#]morning light
[Em]This is something that I'll [G]never control
[C/G]My nerves will be the death of [Dadd4add9/A]me
[C/G]My nerves will be the death of [Dadd4add9/A]me
[C/G]My nerves will be the death of [Dadd4add9/A]me
I know[Em]
