As recorded by Gavin Adcock (2025 release) [Intro] G B7 Em C [Verse 1]
G                       B7
Woke up with a hand cut bruise

B7
Folgers with the boys in blue

Em
Deadbolt on a steel beam door

C
Bare feet on a concrete floor

G
Damn, what a start to the day

B7
Guess I'll just sit here and rot

Em                      C
Hey mister, can I get a copy of the mugshot?
[Chorus]
     G                      B7
Last thing I remember, I forgot to eat dinner

       Em                            C
Then I started sipping liquor and it all went dark

G                                 B7
Ever since her leaving, I've been bottom barrel sinking

       Em                       C
Man, I gotta quit drinking on a broken heart

            G                     B7
Guess I was hitting it hard, woke up in a cell

        Em                      C                  G    B7  Em  C
Blew my money at the bar, now I can't make morning bail
[Verse 2]
G                   B7
They said I got one call

B7
Walked up to the phone on the wall

Em
So much for "Let's stay friends"

C
She didn't answer again

G     B7
Damn, down on my luck

      Em                     C
Don't know what I did, but I know this much
[Chorus]
     G                      B7
Last thing I remember, I forgot to eat dinner

       Em                            C
Then I started sipping liquor and it all went dark

G                                 B7
Ever since her leaving, I've been bottom barrel sinking

       Em                       C
Man, I gotta quit drinking on a broken heart

            G                     B7
Guess I was hitting it hard, woke up in a cell

        Em                      C                  G
Blew my money at the bar, now I can't make morning bail
[Guitar Solo] G B7 Em C G B7 Em C [Chorus]
     G                      B7
Last thing I remember, I forgot to eat dinner

       Em                            C
Then I started sipping liquor and it all went dark

G                                 B7
Ever since her leaving, I've been bottom barrel sinking

       Em                       C
Man, I gotta quit drinking on a broken heart

            G                     B7
Guess I was hitting it hard, woke up in a cell

        Em                      C                  G
Blew my money at the bar, now I can't make morning bail
