C               F                       C
My mind doesn't work so well these days
C              F                  C 
I drink all my waking hours away
G
If I sit here long enough
G
maybe I think of something 
 C                 Am      G
that'll make you stay


C                  F             C
Something tells me not think at all
C                      F             C
I sit in the darkness staring at the wall
G
This loneliness is hell
G
I search for drinks and things 
C          Am      G
to make me well


F           Am
I spend my life staring 
G                              C
through my bloodshot eyes
F            Am                 G
I'll never know where I belong
C                       F                    C
With eyes closed fast I play photographs of you
C                   F              C
you stare at me and wonder how I'm doing
G
I tell you that I'm fine
G
That thought echoes through my empty mind
F          Am   G
I close my eyes again


C                   F                     C
With barroom bliss and a strangers kiss I'm home
C             F                C
Cause no one ever wants to be alone
G
I doubt that there is a way 
G
I'll ever speak the words
F             Am   G
that'll make you stay

C               F                       C
My mind doesn't work so well these days
