As recorded by X (From the 1983 Album MORE FUN IN THE NEW WORLD) [Intro] D Bm A Bm D Bm A D Bm A Bm D Bm A [Verse 1]
D        Bm    A     Bm
It's the drunk in my past

D         Bm        A
Shuffling by like a train

D      Bm            A      Bm
Sounds on its tracks like a ride

D      Bm              E
Like a ride that don't last

D      Bm         A      Bm
Swears each drink is the last

D         Bm            A
Tells the same lie each night

    D            Bm
And breaks every promise

         A        Bm
Till she makes me go crazy

D           Bm          E
She's gonna drive me to drinking
[Chorus]
          G           F#
There's a drunk in my past

    G              F#
The one who let me down

    G       F#           E
Who wasn't around when I needed

          G           F#
There's a drunk in my past

    G           F#
Who swears each drink is the last

G         F#               E
Thought I give him another chance

          G           F#
There's a drunk in my path

G              F#
Each time I go past my house

    G         F#          E
I'm trying to find my way home
[Interlude] D Bm A Bm D Bm A D Bm A Bm D Bm A [Verse 2]
   D           Bm
My door way is blocked

   A            Bm
By doomsday for certain

     D                  Bm
When your own key don't fit

              A
You know it's curtains

         D            Bm
Oh well, never a dull moment

A              Bm
Never a moment passes

     D       Bm                 E
When someone dull don't pass me by

  D        Bm
I love her like a sister

     A          Bm
That drunk that girl

D     Bm               A
Why I wish her all the best?

D          Bm
That's all that's left

       A        Bm
'Cause she took the rest

    D    Bm   E
One heck of a past
[Chorus]
          G           F#
There's a drunk in my past

    G              F#
The one who let me down

    G       F#           E
Who wasn't around when I needed

          G           F#
There's a drunk in my past

    G           F#
Who swears each drink is the last

G         F#               E
Thought I give him another chance

          G           F#
There's a drunk in my path

G              F#
Each time I go past my house

    G         F#          E
I'm trying to find my way home
