Verse 1ED
Bitter sweet thing, could this be a dream
DAE
Or just the same nightmare that keeps me awake
ED
Feel it in my brain, tall shot of pain
DAE
Pour a little up now, for the love that we made
ED
I feel it in the morning, you're still here in the morning
DAE
I see you, but you gone. Telephone the doctor, I'm not okay
ED
The bottom of the bottle, to fill this empty heart up
DA thousand proof don't change the truth
AE
I dive in, but I can't
ChorusED
I can't drink you away
D
I've tried Jack, I've tried Jim,
AE
I've tried all of his friends
ED
But I can't drink you away
DAE
All these rocks, I can't swim out of this skin I'm living in, say
EDD
Now tell me, baby, don't they make a medicine for heart break
AED
Ohh, tell me baby, oh yeah
DAE
Now don't they make a medicine for heart break

When the sun comes up tomorrow

The way we turned out this bed

And now the only thing that sleeps here is a ghost of you instead
