[Ab]
[Db]
I [Ab] can't always stand by [Eb] myself, but [Ab] Lord knows I try.
[Dbm]
[Ab] I ain't as tough as I seem, [Db]
sometimes, as [Ab] much as I fight.
[Db]
[Eb] Tonight I'm leaning on the bottle with a Bible in [Db] my hand,
[Ab] and kneeling like [Eb] you taught me [Db] by this empty king-size bed.
[Dbm] Sometimes [Ab] I pray, but not like I would [Dbm] if you [Ab] were here.
[Eb] Sometimes [Ab] I drink a little more than [Db] I should to fight [Ab] back the tears.
[Db] [Ab] But when I'm holding on to my last [Eb] breath and I'm drowning in that drop that's left in his nose,
[Ab] I don't know [Dbm] what to say.
[Ab] Sometimes I pray.
[Dbm] [Ab]
[Db] [Ab] Well, I've gave him the blame for [Db] my pain, [Ab] time after time.
[Db] [Ab] And I've walked a fine line between hell and playing with fire.
[Db] [Eb] And I wonder why he listens as I stumble [Db] for words.
[Ab] But that red and white [Eb] gets clear [Db] with every [Eb] single verse.
