[A#] Alright.
Ladies and gentlemen, this next song is about my weakness for [Gm]
drugs [E] and alcohol.
[Gm] I like to do a lot of drugs [F#] and drink quite a lot.
[G#] Yeah, that's that [B] damn cocaine, [C] dude.
That's the one that always gets me.
[A#] But, um, [G] [Bm] songs, you know, the thing is I know [A#] better, but usually, you know,
I am an adult and I do reserve the right to go off the rails whenever I want to.
[E] I [B]
[E] [B] [E]

[B] I'm old enough to know, baby
[F#m] It's slipping [B] and sliding [E] even [B] more
[F#] Yeah, [E] it's a setback, it [B] burns
And a shame for sure, [A] baby

Now I'm waking up [E] feeling bad again
[A] [F#]
[B] I'm losing [E] patience with my only [F#m] friend now
Why do [B] I try my luck, [E] baby?
[C#] I should never [B] touch the [A] stuff
But it shouldn't [F#m] make any difference, [B] mama
As long as I keep up [F#] appearance
And [E] now I've been working too hard
I [B] need some time at home, baby
[A] I'm [F#] slipping [B] and [E] sliding even [B] more

[B] [E] [A] Darling, I just [E] need a little comfort in
I [A] [F#] ain't [B] seen the sun rise [E] since I don't know when
[A] Baby, [F#m] the [B] day's getting longer [E] and
[G#] Night's getting colder, [F#m] mama
I'm [B] slipping and sliding, [G#m] feeling low
