Drinkin Song
Jason Boland
Continues after the ad
Key:
A [Verse]A D Jesus has my heart, but whiskey's got my liver,E A Floatin' through life like a raft on a river.D A I know what's right and I know what's wrong,E I know how to quit but now its been too long.A D Just the other day, I was thinkin' to myself,E A At least I still think to myself.D A Well everything works except me of course,E A I still got some of my health. [Chorus]D A Well I grit my teeth and I wish,E A I could stand up and ram my fistD A Right through this wall that keepsB7 E on keepin' me in.A D E I got sober, now its over, I'mA back to drinkin' again. [Verse]D See the time before I quit,Continues after the adE A I quit quittin' the very next day.D A So many times, hell I lost count,E A I guess it just works that way. See I forgot how it felt to feelD good in the mornin',E A Mornin's were for goin' to bed.D And I'd roll out the rack, a monkeyA on my back,E A I need a drink to ease my head. [Chorus]D A Well I grit my teeth and I wish,E A I could stand up and ram my fistD A Right through this wall that keepsB7 E on keepin' me in.A D I got sober, now its over, and itsE A back to drinkin' again. [Instrumental]D A E A D A B7 E A D E A [Verse]A See I'm not saying that its theD right way,E A Hell, its really no way at all.D But you know, it seems like I'mA never gonna get too tired,E A Of feelin' ten feet tall. So you may wanna watch what you'reD doin',E A Or better yet you can just watch me.D A And its not always entertaining,E But you get what you pay for, andA baby its free. [Chorus/Outro]D A Well I grit my teeth and I wish,E A I could stand up and ram my fistD A Right through this wall that keepsB7 E on keepin' me in.A D I got sober, now its over, and itsE A back to drinkin' again.D A Yeah I grit my teeth and I wish,E A I could stand up and ram my fistD A Right through this wall that keepsB7 E on keepin' me in.A D I got sober, now its over, and itsE A back to drinkin' again.D I got sober, now its over, and itsE A back to drinkin' again.
