B G#m E F#


[Verse 1]
B                  G#m      E
Sitting at the bar, telling fairy tales
         F#                B   G#m  E          F#         B     G#m
Pouring whiskey in wishing wells, mmmm feeling sorry for myself
                                E              F#             B
There's only one person in this world that can save me from myself
                 G#m                     E             F#
So I pick up the phone, pray that you're home, I'm all alone


[Chorus]
           B        G#m        C#m
Saying the reason I called you drunk
     F#        B       G#m            C#m
Is I need your love so bad, so bad it hurts
           F#               B        G#m         C#m
Baby, it's worth saying the reason I stay messed up
     F#        B       G#m     C#m   F#   B
Is I need your love so bad, so bad


[Verse 2]
B                           G#m          E               F#
There's some jerk in the bar smoking a big fat Cuban cigar
                  B                  G#m
And I wave my hands through the smoke
                           E                     F#
I think I see you, but it's some kind of twisted joke
       B                              G#m
Oh, you wouldn't be caught dead in here
                          C#m                          Em
Just the thought of me crying would make you disappear


[Chorus]
           B        G#m        C#m
Saying the reason I called you drunk
     F#        B       G#m            C#m
Is I need your love so bad, so bad it hurts
           F#               B        G#m         C#m
Baby, it's worth saying the reason I stay messed up
     F#        B       G#m     C#m         F#   B
Is I need your love so bad, so bad, so damn bad


[Bridge]
    G#m  C#m     F#
(Ooooooh ooh ooh ooooooh) I want a choir to sing
    G#m  C#m     F#
(Ooooooh ooh ooh ooooooh)


[Chorus]
               B        G#m        C#m
I'm saying the reason I called you drunk
     F#        B       G#m            C#m
Is I need your love so bad, so bad it hurts
           F#               B        G#m         C#m
Baby, it's worth saying the reason I stay messed up
     F#        B       G#m     C#m         F#   B
Is I need your love so bad, so bad, so damn bad
