INTRO C D (4x)
VERSE (Same pattern)
C C
Well, I'm sloshed and seeing the stars, stumbling between bars,
C C
Curse you Jameson, you have destroyed me once again.
F C
But I need you, I need you now.
C C
I'm Bruised and busted now, got to get to you somehow.
C C
Well, I can't stop before I start, to dry this drowning heart.
F C
Oh, I need you now, I need you now.
G F C
I think I drank more than my fill, and that explains the evil in my eye.
C C
I'm lost in the middle of a drunk, I'm not sinking, I have sunk,
C C
To the shadows at your back door, you scream you don't need me no more.
F C
Oh, I need you now, I need you now.
G F C
In this fog there's just John and me, help me find the remedy tonight.
G F C
And when there's only wrong in me there's nothing that can lead me to the light.
Am C
Oh, I need you, like the flowers need the rain.
Am C
I don't need you, there's no flowers only pain.
F C
Behind the empty of your eyes I see the sadness and the blame,
F C C
In the darkness of my heart, there's only shame.
C C ...to fade.
Well I'm sloshed and seeing the stars.
