Flogging Molly – These Times Have Got Me Drinking - Tripping Up The Stairs (Guitar)

    D                G      A
Oh, these times have got me drinking

       D        G      A
As I’m tripping up the stairs

      D     G         A
To an empty room left haunted

     G         A          D
By a ghost who once lived there

        G        A      D
Now I’m tripping up the stairs

D                         A
Through a sea of faceless bottles

        D             G    A
And the stench of the afternoon

  D       G       A
I crawl into this coffin

           G      A      D    G A   D G A   D G A   G A D
Sure I was dead before I knew

Bm                  G
Morning starts with sunset

       D                 A
As the darkness fills my eye

     Bm                  G
It’s been so long since another soul

A
Occupied this life

     Bm                     G
So I head downstairs to a familiar friend

       D              A
Who’ll comfort, maybe talk

 Bm                  G
About our roads less travelled

           A
And to the best times we ever had

A
And to the best times we ever had

      D          G      A
These times have got me drinking

       D        G      A
As I’m tripping up the stairs

      D     G         A
To an empty room left haunted

     G         A          D
By a ghost who once lived there

Bm                G
Peace be with the troubled

       D                       A
As the these times now make it clear

Bm                    G
Try forget until it’s over

         A
When the last call splits your ear

      D          G      A
These times have got me drinking

       D        G      A
As I’m tripping up the stairs

      D             G       A
Never asked for the perfect saviour

      G      A        D
Never wanted though I cared

        G        A      G
Now I’m tripping up the stairs

        Bm       G
So I’ll crucify another

   D             A
To nail away the fear

          Bm                G
But don’t pity me, I’m just broken

              A
Who’ll be the next brave volunteer

A
Who’ll be the next brave volunteer

      D          G      A
These times have all us drinking

         D        G      A
As we're tripping up the stairs

      D     G         A
To an empty room left haunted

     G         A          D
By a ghost who once lived there

      D          G      A
These times have got me drinking

       D        G      A
As I’m tripping up the stairs

      D           G       A
Never asked for a perfect saviour

      G      A        D
Never wanted though I cared

        G        A      D
Now I’m tripping up the stairs

D   A               D  A D
      Mind yourself
