I Drink Wine

G  D  Em
        Am  G  D

         G                         D
How can one become so bounded by choices
               Em
That somebody else makes?
             C
How come we both become a version
      G                    D
Of a person we don't even like?
          G
We're in love with the world
         D                          Em
But the world just wants to bring us down
             C
By puttin' ideals in our heads
     G                    D
To corrupt our hearts somehow
 G                         D
When I was a child every single
                   Em
Thing could blow my mind
           C
Soaking it all up for fun
     G                  D
But now I only soak up wine
             G
They say to play hard, you work hard
      D                Em
Find balance in the sacrifice
                 C
And yet I don't know anybody
       G          D
Who's truly satisfied

                        G           B7
You better believe I'm trying (trying, trying)
         Em                     D
To keep climbing (climbing, climbing)
          C
But the higher we climb feels like
                     D
We're both none the wiser (wiser)

              G           D      Em
So I hope I learn to get over myself
               C   G        D
Stop trying to be somebody else
            G        D         Em
So we can love each other for free
                  C         G            D
Everybody wants something, you just want me
            G
Why am I obsessing about
      D               Em
The things I can't control?
           C
Why am I seeking approval
      G                   D
From people I don't even know?
           G
In these crazy times I hope
       D                          Em
I can find something I can cling onto
                     C
'Cause I need some substance in my life
           G                          D
Something real, something that feels true

                        G
You better believe for you
         B7
I've cried (I've cried, I've cried)
      Em  D
High tides (high tides, high tides)
          C
'Cause I want you so bad
                               D
But you can't fight fire with fire

           G           D      Em
I hope I learn to get over myself
               C   G        D
Stop trying to be somebody else
                     G        D            Em
Oh, I just want to love you, love you for free
                           C
'Cause everybody wants something from me
  G            D
You just want me

           G
Listen, I know how low I can go
D                 Em
I give as good as I get
 C                       G
You get the brunt of it all
                            D
'Cause you're all I've got left
       G
Oh, I hope in time (hope in time)
    D                                         Em
We both will find (we'll both find) peace of mind
               C
Sometimes the road less traveled
        G               D
Is the road best left behind

               G           D      Em
Oh, I hope I learn to get over myself
               C   G        D
Stop trying to be somebody else
                     G
Oh, I just want to love you
 D            Em
Love you for free, yeah
                  C         G            D
Everybody wants something, you just want me

                        G
You better believe I'm trying (trying, trying)
D          Em
 To keep climbing (climbing, climbing)
          C
But the higher we climb
       G                        D    C  G
Feels like we're both none the wiser
