[Csus2][G][Csus2]
[G]

[Verse 1]
[G]Tonight I'll [Csus2]say the drunkard's praye[G]r[Csus2]
[G]Down the hatch [C]and drown
[Csus2]myself to[G] sleep
I'll close my [Csus2]eyes
and stumble [G]round[Csus2]
And [G]fall [Csus2]down on my knee[G]s[Em]
I'll raise [C]the glass[Csus2]
[C]As it [Csus2]raises me[G][Csus2][G][Csus2][G][Em]
I'll say a prayer
[C]A p[Csus2]rayer for[C] releas[D]e
[G]Sha[Csus2]me[G][Csus2][G][Csus2][G]
act[Csus2]s like a mirror[G][Csus2]
And [G]re flects [Csus2]all I see[G]
[Csus2][G]
There's blood [Csus2]in this whiskey[G]
[Csus2]It works its[G][Csus2]
charm on me
[G]

[Verse 2]
[Em]
I'll hold [C]the glass[Csus2][C]
As it holds [G]me[Csus2][G][Csus2][G][Em]
I'll say a [C]prayer
Prayer [Csus2]for relea[G]se

[Verse 3]
[Csus2]I cata[G][Csus2][G][D][G]
[Csus2]log the namel[G]ess sins
And ask [Csus2]for my forgi[G]veness
All [Csus2]I see is my [G]mother's face
[Csus2]And my fa[G]ther's blind[Csus2][G]
contrition
[Csus2][G]

[Verse 4]
[Em]
I'll lift [C]the glass
As it lifts [D]me[G][Csus2][G][Csus2][G][Em]
I'll say a prayer
[C]A prayer f[Csus2]or re lea[G]se
[Csus2][G][Csus2][G]

[Verse 5]
[G]All I want [Csus2]is the de[G]vil's
[Csus2]due[G]
Cast me [C]out amon[Csus2]g my in v[G]entions
I'll tell the [Csus2]tale that[G]'s been told[Csus2]
[G]And live with my suspicions

[Verse 6]
[Em]
I'll raise [C]the glass
As it raises [D]me[G][Csus2][G][Csus2][G][Em]
I'll say [Csus2]a prayer
