Please baby wait for me, wait for me, wait for me 

Verse 
D                                      A 
I got loaded last night on a bottle of gin 
                                    D 
And I had a fight with my best girl friend 
                                    G 
But when I'm drinkin' I am nobody's friend 
                          D             A             D    A 
But, please baby wait for me until they let me out a- gain 

D                                      A 
I know the same thing has happened be- fore 
                                           D 
And every time it does, I hate it more and more 
                                    G 
But when I'm drinkin' I am nobody's friend 
                          D             A             D 
But, please baby wait for me until they let me out a- gain 

Chorus 
                      A 
(Spend a whole lot of time,) spend a whole lot of time 
                      E 
(Spend a whole lot of time,) sittin' and thinkin' 
                                                            A 
(Spend a whole lot of time,) sittin' and just thinkin' bout you 

Bridge 
     A                         E 
If I didn't spend so much time sittin' and drinkin' 
                                    A 
We'd still have a love that we once knew 

Verse 
            D                                      A 
Oh, I won't promise the same thing won't happen a- gain 
                                                   D 
But I can promise, it'll be a long, long time till then 
                                        G 
'Cause when I'm drinkin', I am nobody's friend 
                          D             A             D 
But, please baby wait for me until they let me out a- gain
