Chords for Colton Brown - Empty Glass ft Gary Stewart (video)

[G] _ _ _ _ _ Hey bartender, _ _ I'm gonna need [D] another drink [Em] over here.
_ [Bm] _ _
[Em] _ Give me that top [Am] shelf though.
I don't want the water down [Cm] stuff tonight.
_ _ [G] _ _ _
Here we go.
[D] I [G] was crying the other [D] night, [G] wondering why, life passing me by.
Every day [D] I lose another [Em] night.
[Bm] Sleep ain't coming easy, believe [Em] me.
Man, I really need this drama to leave [G] me.
Give me some D's, let a player breathe.
Cause life's getting crazy in these [D] streets.
[Em] Underneath the sheets, I dream [Bm] of days gone by.
[Em] I can't see daylight, and now I'm wondering why.
[G] What's the meaning of life?
[D] Why am I here?
[G] I keep asking the same thing, so why does [D] nobody hear?
[Em] Does anybody feel what [Bm] I feel?
Where do we [Em] go when our time's up down here?
And if I [Am] die today,
would anybody really care?
Or will [Cm] my memory disappear over the years?
I [G] don't know,
it's [Bm] hard to tell.
But I don't think [G] that I could take another day in this physical hell.
I [D] had to take the last [G] drop to the head, now I'm sitting here smoking on my [Bm] life.
[Em] Man, I've been [Bm] buying out the bar all day, [Em] now they want to send me home cause it's [C] closing time.
But it's alright, y'all, I'm about to open down.
And I'm done, [D] again.
And it don't matter if they take my keys.
I'll [G] make it home.
Lay in bed, think about my problems.
I'm not [D] left [Em] to sleep.
Another day gone by, but it's alright.
_ [Am] That's the way _ [Cm] the day ends.
[C] Every [Am] night.
That's the way the day ends.
[Cm] Every night.
[G] It's like I'm running in [D] circles.
Man, I've been here before.
[G] Messed up, down and out on top of
that.
[D] I'm broke.
[Em] Man, I gotta take the [Bm] edge off.
Give me something [Em] hard.
Raising two kids,
no idea where to [G] start.
Supposed to be a [D] role model, not [G] a forefather.
Looking for
the [D] bottom of a [Em] bottle.
I take another [Bm] swallow.
God knows [Em] why.
It ain't get harder to swallow.
As time goes [G] by, I try to keep my head [D] high.
[G] Walk with a swagger.
Try not to slip and fall
[D] off this [Em] ladder.
So many fake [Bm] people.
I let them hate and [Em] chatter.
Quit stressing over
petty things.
Feel it don't [Am] matter.
Pour another drink.
Wash away my [Cm] troubles.
Got so many, man, I gotta drink [G] double.
[Bm] Life's too short.
No time for regret.
[G] So I take another
drink, [D] fire up another [G] cigarette.
[D] I'll take the last [G] drop to the head.
Now I'm sitting here smoking
on my last [Em] cigarette.
And I've been [Bm] buying out the bar all [E] night.
Now they want to send me home
cause it's [C] closing time.
But it's alright, y'all.
I'm about to go down.
I'm drunk [D] again.
And it don't
matter if they take my keys.
I'll [G] make it home.
Lay in bed, think about my problems.
I'll cry
[D] [Em] myself to sleep.
Another day gone by, but it's alright.
And [Am] that's the way the day ends.
Yeah, that's the [Cm] way the day ends.
Every [C] _ [Am] night.
That's the way the day ends.
Take [Cm] it.
I [G] feel my childhood [D] devil prepared [G] me for life.
But I'm trying to get myself [D] together, man.
[Em] I ain't
lying.
I [Bm] really hate the fact that I [Em] was so blind.
Yeah, I was so blind.
[G] Couldn't even see that the
mirror wasn't a man at all.
Just a baby boy [D] acting like he [Em] knew it all.
Running through the [Bm] world,
eyes wide [Em] shut.
Never took no advice cause I knew what was.
[G] But looking back [D] now, I was [G] so conceited.
Never knew that the world could be [D] so [Em] deceiving.
Friends turn [Bm] enemy, enemies turn [Em] friends.
And they
all turn their back when you burn all your [Am] ends.
Can't pretend I haven't made mistakes.
[Cm] That's why
I'm sitting at the bar trying to drink all my weight.
[G] Drop a quarter in the jukebox.
Play me
something sad.
Hit me something on the [D] rocks, man.
[G] I'm shooting back.
I done took a whole bottle to
the head.
Now I'm sitting here smoking on my.
_ [Em] I've been buying at the bar all night.
Now they
want to send me home cause it's [C] cold and tight.
But it's alright, y'all.
I've been told down.
And [D] _ _ it don't matter if they take my keys.
I'll [G] make it all.
Lay in bed, think about my problems.
_ [Bm] _ [Em] _ Another day gone by, but it's alright.
[Am] That's the way the day _
[Cm] ends.
Every _ [G] night for me. _
Bring it back one more time, y'all.
[Am] That's the way the day ends.
[Cm] Every night [G] for me. _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [D] _ _
[G] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
