Why Henry Drinks

Intro : A, E, D


A
Them stories that you tell me are so
 hard to swallow

You said “Go to hell” but I know 
you’d just follow
D                                 
The future’s closing in quicker

than you think
    A                  E      
And hanging with you I know why 
  D     A

are fighting and cussing

D                                 
You say what’s on your mind - tell

drinks


E
Just a few more hours till the sun 
comes back around

To tear each other down and drink 
another round

Lost it on the way now I’m hating 
what we found
Mendacity and grudge-fucks and 
D
pieces out of town

A
I drink half a case of beer on my 
way home from work

Daddy needs his medicine to keep his
 hands off Mama’s throat
D                                 
Baby, push a little harder cause 
                 F#
