	        G                                      C 
He embarrasses his child and wife Lord he leads a miserable life 

                        G                   D7 
But still he thinks the bottle is his right hand 

G                                       C 
Yes and he can tear down more than he's ever built before 

               G                     D7               G 
A man can be a drunk sometimes but a drunk can't be a man 


                                        C 
He lets his business lag behind for the nightlife he can find 

                           G          D7 
Why he does all this he'll never understand 

G                                    C 
In the morning when he wakes up Lord he can't wait to fill his cup 

               G                     D7               G 
A man can be a drunk sometimes but a drunk can't be a man 


    C 
For he goes from Doctor Jackel to Mr. Hide 

   G                                     D7 
He seems proud to have the devil for his guide 

         G                          C 
Still he keeps on reaching out Lord he needs a helping hand 

                   G                     D7               G 
But a man can be a drunk sometimes but a drunk can't be a man 


C                  G                     D7               G 
Yes a man can be a drunk sometimes but a drunk can't be a man
