G C F D/F# G D
Verse 1
G I stopped into a club C I thought I'd see a show F Everyone was there D At least everyone I know G Their knickers in a knot C Their hands upon their heart F The best they'd ever seen D The greatest work of art G I wished that it was me....
Chorus
G7 C It's bleaker than you think Cm G I'm running out of ink G7 C Give a guy a break Cm G D This is what it takes G D To drive a man to drink
Verse 2
G A party at a friend's C Toronto's coolest scene F I thought I'd bring a tape D To show them where I'd been G They listened for a while C The lyrics made them smile F They said that it was fine D Although it's not the style G D I said it wasn't me
Verse 3
G Once upon a time C I couldn't get enough F Until I made it big D And that's when it got rough G Dissapointed? No; C Perhaps a bit surprised... F To look them in the face D And see it in their eyes G They wish it wasn't me
Chorus
G7 C It's bleaker than you think Cm G I'm running out of ink G7 C Give a guy a break Cm G D This is what it takes G D To drive a man to drink [Verse 4] (muted) G I used to hold you close C You used to tell me things F You never told a soul D Until you heard me sing G The details of your life C Condensed into a song F The neighbor and his wife D Work out and sing along G And you can't look at me
Chorus
G7 C It's bleaker than you think Cm G I'm running out of ink G7 C Give a guy a break Cm G D This is what it takes G D To drive a man to drink
Bridge
Am Em Could song be an alibi G F E Am A lyric replacement for falling in love Em But now that the well is dry C F E Am D#dim7 I can't understand what I've been singing of... Em D#dim7 Em D#dim7 Do you know what it is to love? (To love) (D#dim7) Em To really love? (To love) D#dim7 Em To really love.... B7 Em D#dim7 Really love G Do I?
Verse 5
G I cycled by your house C I saw you on the lawn F I see you all the time D Now that you are gone G I tried to call your name C But something made me stop F I call you once a day D Until you call the cops G D And told them it was me
Verse 6
G I filled a plastic bag C With everything I wrote F I threw it off a bridge D I thought that it would float. G The water made it sink C The bag was bleeding ink. F I wished that it could swim D I wished that I could drink G I wished that it was me.
Chorus
G7 C It's bleaker than you think Cm G I'm running out of ink G7 C Give a guy a break Cm G This is what it takes G7 C To drive a man to drink Cm G I'm running out of ink G7 C Give a guy a break Cm G D This is what it takes G D To drive a man to drink G D To drive a man to drink G To drive a man to drink
