        G 
Got a stale boat of beer nuts 
      C             G 
Some old cigarette butts 
                       D 
All I can show for my day 
         G 
Just a warming this bar stool  
   C            G 
Talking a damn fool 
                         D 
Watching the hours melt away 
        C                            Fill 2 
And I know I shouldn’t call in the shape I am in 
         G       D      G 
But it’s 2 AM already again

  G 
Life in the beer glass 
    C               G 
Thinking bout the days past 
                                 D 
Its no way, no way to pass your time 
   G                   
Shouldn’t pick up the phone 
             C         G 
When I'm a drunk and alone 
                                   D  
Cuz my mind plays tricks when I’m high 
         C                             Fill 2 
So one more shot of whiskey fore the room starts to spin 
         G       D      C 
Cuz it’s 2 AM already again 

D D D 

   C              
Knocked down and drag outs 
    G 
Hangovers and blackouts 
     C                     D       
No wonder she left me for him 
          C               Fill 2 
And I'll wake up tomorrow feeling like sin 
         G       D      C 
Cuz it’s 2 AM already again
