Verse 1
E – – G# – – A – – A – – E – –

I was a loner until there were no friends left
And before someone offered me drugs
You know I was straight edge
And everyone quits til you offer them a cigarette

B – – A – – E – – B – – A – –
B – – B – –
And I'll drink myself to death!
Or at least I'll drink myself to sleep!
Chainsmoke my way through the gaps in between
My aspirations and my apathy

E – – G# – – C#m – – A – – E – –
G# – – C#m – – A – – B – –
As we drive past the last exit to home I am waving goodbye
And I might be sleeping in the ditch tonight
But it's alright cuz whiskey is my kind of lullaby!

And before someone offered me a job ya know I was gonna get one soon
Before the booze wears off

Lets take another shot or two

My aspirations and my apathy
