F C F/A Am7
The same drink that gets me out the door
F C F/A Am7
Is the same drink that puts me on the floor
F C F/A Am7
And the new thing I wanna try some more
F C F/A Am7
Is the same mistake I used to make before
[Chorus]

If I'm helpless tell me now
Am
Tell me now

If I'm helpless tell me now

If I'm helpless tell me now

And I'll stop trying to figure it out

F C F/A Am7
The same brain that brings me ecstacy

A broken heart is all I'll ever be
