Tuning: Standard (Capo 1) - Also sounds okay with no capo
First Submission. Sounds right to me, but I'm sure there are all kinds of variations that will sound right.
It's [C]hard staying sober when [F]you ain't staying over
It's [C]easy gettin' messed up on the [G]truth
It's [C]hard standing here watchin' [F]taillights disappear
It's [C]hard staying sober when I'm [G]getting over [C]you
It's [C]hard to leave the house when [F]all I think about
Is [C]how hard it might be to come back [G]home
I wait[C] here and watch the rain when you[F] come back for all your things
[C]You get what you want and then you'll go [G]
It's [C]hard staying sober when [F]you ain't staying over
It's [C]easy gettin' messed up on the [G]truth
It's [C]hard standing here watchin' [F]taillights disappear
It's [C]hard staying sober when I'm [G]getting over [C]you
It's [C]hard to quit this smokin' when my [F]will to fight is broken
It's [C]hard to quit a habit in a [G]rush
When I [C]wake up in the morning, just like [F]you I'm lookin' for 'em
[C]Can't seem to put down this pick me [G]up
It's [C]hard staying sober when [F]you ain't staying over
It's [C]easy gettin' messed up on the [G]truth
It's [C]hard standing here watchin' [F]taillights disappear
It's [C]hard staying sober when I'm [G]getting over [C]you
It's [C]hard staying sober when I'm [G]getting over [C]you
Why you think the world [C]drinks?
Why you think the world [F]smokes?
Why do you think we all [C]sit around and [F]tell a bunch of dirty [G]jokes
Some[C]body somewhere is out havin' a ball
And some[F]body's sittin' 'round heart broke
Why you think we all [C]drink? [G]
Why you think we all [C]smoke?
Why you think we all [C]drink? [G]
Why you think we all [C]smoke?
Note: There is a little instrumental break between the last part and the tag. Just vamp with the same chords
and you should be fine. There is also an outro which should also just use the same chords.
