[Intro 1]
[G][C][G][D][C][D][Em][C]
[G][C][G][D][Em][C]

[Verse 1]
[G]Fall prey to the blizzard head
[C]Wrapped my hand around [G]the glass [D]again
[G]We all[D] thought that I might
[Em]change as I got [C]older
[G]Fell down and nothing bled
[C]Wrapped in cotton al[G]cohol [D]again
To the hilt I hear from the [Em]prick
upon my [C]shoulder[G]
Free pour the fruitless thoughts
It's [C]far too late [G]to talk so much [D]but[G]
Still not [D]giving up [G]though
[Em]I wish that I was [C]sober[G]
For[C]give me I [G]can't speak [D]straight
For[C]give me I [G]can't
For[C]give me it's [G]far too late

[Interlude 1]
[D][G]

[Verse 2]
Choke down the [G]gateway drug
[C]Opened the gates,
in [G]came the flood, [D]it comes
Like a blush of love,
it [Em]hits me without [C]warning[G]
Long nights of getting lost
I [C]walk beneath the [G]bridge I don't [D]know
I need a black suit for tomor[Em]row,
I'm in [C]mourning
[G]My love you should know
The be[C]st of me left [G]hours ago [D]so
Shove a rag into my [Em]mouth
and let me [C]smolder
[G]Fallout and the damage done
I can[C]'t un-sing the the
[G]things I've [D]sung
Still not giving up though
I [Em]wish that I was [C]sober[G]
For[C]give me I [G]can't speak [D]straight
For[C]give me [G]I can't
For[C]give me it's [G]far too late

[Interlude 2]
[D][C][G][D]
[G]

[Verse 3]
[G]Oh, [C]come and shake me
[G]till I'm [D]dry (Oh)
Oh, I [Em]wish that I was [C]sober[G]
Oh, [C]come to me and [G]kill the night [D]off (Oh)
I [Em]wish that I was [C]sober[G]
Oh, [C]come and shake me
[G]till I'm [D]dry (Oh)
Oh, I [Em]wish that I was [C]sober[G]
Oh, [C]come to me and kill [G]the night [D]off (Oh)
I [Em]wish that I was sober

[Outro 1]
