She's all laid up in bed with a broken heart
[D] I'm drinking Jack all alone in my local bar
And we don't [Em] know how, how we got into this mad situation

Trying to make it work, but [G] man, these times are hard
She needs me now, but I can't seem to find the time
I've [D] got a new job now on the unemployment line
