Got drun[A]k by myself last ni[C#m]ght
& they say t[bm]hats no way to make things right[A]
I just didnt have anything better to do[E]
The dog [A]was asleep on the living roo[E]m rug
And I watched [D]a show about a crime of drugs[A]
Punished a bo[A]ttle of bourbon unt[E]il it was through[A]
I dont [A]care that I can[C#m]t sleep
Id just[bm] as soon stay up all week[A]
Might get som[A]e things done while others dream[E]
The heater[A] broke and the room got col[E]d
And my knees [D]and ankles say Im getting [A]older
The phon[A]e finally rang but it wasn[E]t for me[A]
Chorus:
If everyon[D]e should be toget[E]her[A]
I guess no on[E]e would be alone[bm]
Th[E]ats a lot of tradeoffs in the end[A]
So[E]mewhere in the fields of heaven[D]
Proud[A] Souls laugh and love together[D]
Some[A] where between passi[E]on and losing friends[A]
Sleep finally came but I woke up alone
And my head was next to the telephone
A gave the sun a cussing as I drew the shade
One thing that seems always true
When Im hung over the sky is blue
A rough night for me makes a hell of a day
I believe in ghost and democracy
And that each man should leave his legacy
That mans work great or be it small
But I dont believe in everything
Like the designated hitter, or that diamond rings
Can make love last for ever for one and all
Chorus:
(Repeat) Somewhere between passion and loosing friends
This is how I play the song and it sounds pretty good. These Guys are
awesome in concert, if you ever get a change go see them.
