Verse 1:
 D             Em 
Give it to me straight 
                                      D 
It's okay, this barstool knows I can take it 
                Em 
Don't water it down 

The truth is too strong 
                    D 
I just don't wanna face it 

Pre-Chorus
    Em                                           G 
And I don't know another way to get your memory out of my head 
Em                                            G 
It ain't gonna take away the pain, but it'll take off the edge

That's why I'm drinking 
                                 Em 
I've done wasted all of my time thinking 
                                        G 
I'd rather drown this hurt than let it sink in 
       A 
Yeah, that's why

Verse 2:
 
               Em 
Numb me just enough 
                                    D 
So I can touch someone new and not feel it 
                      Em 
Oh, let her wreck my heart 

Let her leave her scar 
                         D 
So that yours can start healing 

Pre-Chorus
     Em                                           G 
I'm getting pretty good at getting gone now that you're gone for good 
Em                                      G 
I remember picking out a ring, now I'm wishing my phone would
