CAPO I
INTRO: C
C F G C
Back in my drinkin' days I could hold my own in a fight
F G C
Swingin' at the Devil with one hell of a right
C F G C
Back in my drinkin' days I borrowed against borrowed time
F G C
God gives a lot away, I was stealin' mine
C F G C
And back in my drinkin' days I could fall and never feel a thing
F G C
Filled the void with Tanqueray, killed the night with what's-her-name
Chorus:
C G F C
But I never knew I was thirsty 'til I set that bottle down
C G F C
And I never knew I was lonely 'til I quit laughin' a crowd
Am G F
And I never knew I was empty 'til you poured into me
Dm G
Made me a man I could never be
Back in my drinkin' days, talkin' to Jesus from the bar
Pushin' my limits, my women, my religion way too far
Back in my drinkin' days, there's some skeletons in tears
'Cause I left 'em high and dry and they know they ain't welcome here
Chorus:
C G F C
But I never knew I was thirsty 'til I set that bottle down
C G F C
And I never knew I was lonely 'til I quit laughin' in a crowd
Am G F
And I never knew I was empty 'til you poured into me
Dm G
Made me a man I could never be, back in my drinkin' days
C
Yeah my worst day in this new place
Dm G C
Is better than my best one
F
Back in my drinkin' days
C F
Yeah I had me some...drinkin' days
