       Am        C         G
I got green and I’ve got blues

       Am                          C                      G
Every day there’s a little less difference between the two

          Am         C       G
So I belly up and disappear

        Am                          C                         G
Well I ain’t really drowning ‘cause I see the beach from here
[Pre-chorus]
        Dsus2/F#
I could take the Greyhound home

       Am
When I got there it’d be gone

            C             G6/B             G
Along with everything my home is made up of
[Chorus]
              Am                      C
So I’ll take two of what you’re having

           G                  D
I’ll take all of what you got

              Am               C              G
To kill this goddamn lonely, goddamn lonely love
Am C G x2 [Verse]
        Am        C               G
Sister listen to what your daddy says

            Am                   C                   G
Don’t be ashamed of things that hide behind your dress

      Am       C            G
Belly up and arch your back

        Am                     C                       G
Well I ain’t really fallin’ asleep; I’m fadin’ to black
[Pre-chorus]
        Dsus2/F#
You can come to me by plane

        Am
but it wouldn’t be the same

              C              G6/B       G
as that old motel room in Texarkana was
[Chorus]
              Am                      C
So I’ll take two of what you’re having

           G                  D
I’ll take all of what you got

              Am               C              G
To kill this goddamn lonely, goddamn lonely love
Am C G [Bridge]
G/B            Cadd9                 G
Stop me if you heard this one before

           Dsus4/G    A7sus4
A man walks into a bar

          Em           Cadd9           G
And leaves before his ashes hit the floor

G/B          Cadd9           G
Stop me if I ever get that far

             Dsus4/G      A7sus4
The sun’s a desperate star

         Em            Cadd9          Cmadd9
That burns like every single one before
[Pre-chorus]
         D
I could find another dream

          Am
One that keeps me warm and clean

               C             G6/B                G
But I ain’t dreamin’ anymore; girl I’m wakin’ up
[Chorus]
              Am                      C
So I’ll take two of what you’re having

           G                  D
I’ll take all of what you got

              Am               C              G
To kill this goddamn lonely, goddamn lonely love
Am C G
                      Am              C              G
All I’ve got is this goddamn lonely, goddamn lonely love

                      Am              C              G
All I’ve got is this goddamn lonely, goddamn lonely love

                      Am              C              G
All I’ve got is this goddamn lonely, goddamn lonely love
