That oscillatin' fan is movin' left to right

Like it's mockin' me for comin' here again last night

As I fumble through the twisted sheets lookin' for my

I step over that spot on your hardwood floor 
    G                                F                 G 
The one that always squeaks when I'm sneakin' out your door 
 
 
F        C      F          C 
Some use water, others use beer 
F               C            G             
Some don't need anything, but I end up here

I call up my sister tell her don't say a word

You know where I am, I'll wait here by the curve

But I know all bets are off when I've had too much 
        G                     F 
With an empty shot glass on a Budwiser coaster 
G                           F                 G 
Starin' at my cell phone as closin' time gets closer

Some use water, others use beer

I'll trade lonely for the guilt

It's easier to drown
