[Intro]
| D | D | D | D |
[Verse]
D [tab]D Whiskey wine and beer D G A The sound of glasses clinking so sweet to my ear D G Bm I wouldn't have to listen to the time that's running out D I use it much more wisely A D I drink and fall about
[Verse]
G I wish I was still drinking D Then I'll have no fear G A I'd tell you how to fix the world then have another beer G Bm I wouldn't have to feel the pain that's in a mother's eyes D | D | I drink till I believe the sound G D of my own drunken lies
[Bridge]
| G A | Bm |
| G A | D |
[Verse]
D I wish I was still drinking D When nothing is to clear D G A Like the TV evangelist fuelling peoples fear D G Bm Taking all their hard-earned cash in the name of the holy one D The days are surely numbered A D The days will surely come
[Verse]
G I wish I was still drinking D I was a lot more fun G A Life of the endless party, friends with anyone G Bm I wouldn't have to answer for the promises I broke D Like the president today, A D or when he drank and snorted coke
[Bridge]

| G A | D |
[Verse]
D I wish I was still drinking D Then I wouldn't have to hear D G A Sound of rapid gun fire exploding in my ear D G Bm I drink through the nightmares of friends crying out for help D I would drink through everything A D I've seen or heard or felt
[Verse]
G I wish I was still drinking D I really really do G A I get it on my fair-weather friends, like him and her and you G Bm I count all the missing teeth that can no longer chew D | D | D | I even drive my old white car A D Cause she likes drinking to
[Verse]
D I wish I was still drinking D Whiskey wine and beer D G A The sound of glasses clinking so sweet to my ear D G Bm I wouldn't have to listen to the time that's running out D | D | D | D | D | I use it much more wisely A A I drink and fall about
