This is tablature — fret positions rather than chord names. Wide lines scroll sideways on their own, so the page never does.

Chorus 1

D A

Tripping hard falling out onto the ground

(A) Asus4 Em7

Cause I can¡¦t stand up and I can't fall down

(Em7) G

Cause I'm somewhere in the middle of this

D A-Asus4 Em7 G

Wooohoooo woooooo oh

Verse 2

I was out the other night

A7sus4

And I saw you so we had a fight

Em7

It was late and I was lonely

Baby such a long way home

So I asked you if you'd join me

A7sus4

For a single last call drink

Em7

And so you turned and bought us 2

And you didn't even blink

You had this look, that of an angel

A7sus4

It was such a bad disguise

Bm A

When you drink it makes you angry

When I drink I want you more and more and more

[Chorus] (x2)
