Verse 1.

Intro: A F#m A F#m
[A]I came home to f[D]ind you were gone
On a c[A]old grey morning
I remember now that's the w[D]ay you said it would [E]be
[D]Like living in a b[G]ad dream
[C]Alcohol in the bl[F]oodstream
Goin' to have to [A]do -[D] 'til I forget about [A]you[D]
[A]Ooo[D]- 'til I forget about y[A]ou

Verse 2.
Some dead wild flowers
And a bottle of vodka on the kitchen table
Flowers for the good times and booze for the bad
I can curse I can scream
But alcohol in the bloodstream
'Bout the best I can do - 'til I forget about you
Ooo - 'til I forget about you

BRIDGE:
[F#m]Now my strings are all unst[E]rung
Everything I could do I've d[D]one
Just waiting for daylight to c[E]ome, to come

(Instrumental)

I wonder where you've gone
And I wonder how long I can take this loneliness
Two hundred first calf heifers and a deal is a deal I guess
Then I'll roll my bed get away clean
Alcohol in the bloodstream
Goin' to quit you too
Then I'll forget about you
[A]Ooo[D] - 'til I forget about y[A]ou[D]
[A]Ooo[D] - 'til I forget about y[A]ou[D]
A(one down-stroke) A D A D A E A
Ooo - 'til I forget about you
