[Dm] [A] [Dm] [A]
[Dm] [A] [Dm] [A]
Drunk men [Dm] stagger, drunk men [A] fall, drunk men [Dm] swear and that's not [C#m] all
Quite often they will urinate [A] outdoors
[Dm] [A]
Like [Dm] widowed women, drunk men [A] weep
Like [Dm] children curled up, drunk [C#m] men sleep
Like a dog a drunk will crawl around [A] on all four
He [D]
broke bum or rich rake
[Am] His dinner be it bread or cake
[G] His beverage be the worst of whiskey, [A] finest wine
[Dm] [A]
Puget [Dm] stinks and so it [A] seems
The drunkards [Dm] go to great extremes
[C#m]
There has yet to be a perfectly [A] straight line
[Dm] [A]
[Dm] [A] Drunks talk [Dm] strong when drunks are [A] weak
It's [Dm] easy for a drunk to [C#m] speak [A] straight from the heart
[Dm] [A] Yeah, drunks [Dm] will fight, they're not [A] afraid
They'll kiss the [Dm] mistress and make the [C#m] maid
It's [A] the man they are
[D] Oh, but the drinker toll will take
Blood [Am] vessels in nose will [G] break
Bags beneath the [A] eyes on other [Dm] side
[A] [Dm] Drunks get ugly so [A] it seems
The [Dm] drunkards go to great [C#m] extremes
There has yet to be a perfectly straight line
[Dm] [A] [Dm] [A]
[D] [Dm]
[A] [D] [A]
Drunks [Dm] are friendly when [A] they're drunk
And drunks are [Dm] hostile when they're [C#m] drunk
Drunk it is, it all depends [A] upon
[Dm] [A]
When [Dm] drunks are drunk they thirst for [A] drink
And elephants [D] are gray not [C#m] pink
And pink evaporates
[A] The man is gone, gone, gone, gone
[D] Back to the yachts and the subway cars
[Dm] To the hip flasks and the fruit [G] jars
Flat on the face [A] and flat on the [Dm] behind
[A]
Oh, drunks [Dm] get drunk and so it [A] seems
The drunkards [Dm] go to great [C#m]
extremes
There has yet to be a perfectly [A] straight line
[Dm] [A] Straight line, [Dm] [A] straight line
[Dm] [A]
