Half Alive And Still Drinking

Gary Stewart


Tom: D

                        D
Half in love and slowly sinking
                            Em       G
Down to the level of my own thinking in the bottle
A                            N.C.
Half in love and half alive
              D
And I'm still drinking

[Verse 1]
D               A            D
I never thought I'd turn to drinking
    Bm              A            G
But here I sit this bottle in my hand
D                        A               D
'Cause I can't live with half my woman's loving
            Bm           A           D
Lord, she's made me feel like half a man

[Chorus]
D                    G
Half alive and still drinking
                        D
Half in love and slowly sinking
                            Em       G
Down to the level of my own thinking in the bottle
A                           N.C.
Half in love and half alive
              D
And I'm still drinking

[Break]
Em G D

[Verse 2]
D        A                    D
I never thought she'd turn to cheating
      Bm             A        G
But a man's love can be oh, so blind
D             A           D
Half of me is trying to forget her
      Bm            A         D
While half of me is out of my mind

[Chorus]
D                    G
Half alive and still drinking
                        D
Half in love and slowly sinking
                            Em       G
Down to the level of my own thinking in the bottle
A                           N.C.
Half in love and half alive
              D
And I'm still drinking
