Verse 1
[Em]So open [Am]promise [Em]fades[Am]
and the [Em]sun for[Am]gets to [Em]rise[Am]
I'm [C]lonely and I'm [Em]thirsty

Never more than [Em]two drinks [Am]away
[Gm]

Never more than [Em]two drinks [Am]away
[Gm]
Bridge
There [C]used to be a [Em]time
When I could [Am]hold my head up [Em]high
My [C]life stretched out [Em]before me
and [Am]rivers flowed with [Em]wine
I [C]had my love [Em]beside me
and [Am]everything was [Em]fine
But [C]now the [Em]ride is over
It's [Am]hard to say goodbye
Verse 3
[Em]So open [Am]promise [Em]fades[Am]
and [Em]midnight [Am]turns to [Em]day[Am]
I'd [C]love to drown my [Em]sorrow
but I [Am]cannot tell a [Em]lie
Never more than [Em]two drinks [Am]away
[Gm]
