Capo 2
[G][D][Em] [C][G][C][D][twice]
[G][D][Em] [C][G][D][G] [G-C]
[G]I got drunk by myself last [D]night
they [Em]say it's no way to [C]make things right
[G]I just didn't have [C]anything better to [D]do.
[G]The dog was asleep on the [D]living room rug and
I w[Em]atched a show about [C]crime and drugs,
[G]punished a bottle of [D]bourbon until it was [G]through.
[G] I don't care that [D]I can't sleep
Cause [Em]I'd just as soon stay [C]up all week
[G]I might get some things [D]done while others [G]dream.
[G]The heater broke and the [D]room got cold
and my knees [Em]and ankles say I'm [C]gettin' old
[G]the phone finally [D]rang but it wasn't for [G]me
Chorus
If [Bm]everyone was to[C]gether
I guess [G]no one would be alone[D]
[Em]Life's a lot of [C]trade offs in the [G]end.
[Bm]Somewhere in the [C]fields of heather
The [G]proud souls [C]laugh and love together
som[G]ewhere between [D]passion and losing [G]friends
[G]Sleep finally came but I [D]woke up alone
my head [Em]was next to the [C]telephone
[G]I gave the sun a [C]cussin' as I drew the [D]shades.
[G]One thing that seems always true [D]
When [Em]I'm hung over the [C]sky is blue.
A [G]rough night for me [D]will make a hell of a [G]day
I bel[G]ieve in ghosts and dem[D]ocracy
and that [Em]each man should leave his [C]legacy
[G]Be that mans work[C] great or be i[G]t small.
I [G]don't believe in [d]everything like
the [Em]designated hitter or that [C]diamond rings
[G]will make love last [D]forever for one and all[G]
Chorus
Cause if [Bm]everyone should be tog[C]ether
Why are [G]so many left alone[C]
[Em]Life's a lot of [C]trade offs in the [G]end
[Bm]Somewhere in the [C]fields of heather
The [G]proud souls laugh and they [C]love together
[G]Somewhere between [D]passion and loosing [G]friends
[G]Somewhere between [D]passion and los[C]ing fri[G]ends
