Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[Am][G][F][C]
[Am][G][F][C]

[Verse 1]
[Am]You don't [G]have to drink tonight
why [F]don't we just get [C]some sleep
'Cause I'm [Am]tired of cryin' [G]in driveways
as you [F]slur the words [C]you speak
I [Am]know growin' [G]up
has been an [F]evil thing [C]to you
Makes you [Am]aw fully hard to[G] love
from a [F]lover's point of [C]view
[Am][G][F][C]

[Verse 2]
And I'll [Am]never under [G]stand
how you [F]wound up in the shape [C]you're in
But I'll [Am]always be [G]the fool that fell
for [F]you and your bur[C]nin' skin
I'll be [Am]prayin' for you [G]and pinin' for you
and [F]hopin' you get [C]some rest
But from a [Am]lover's point [G]of view
it's all been [F]hard to watch [C]at best

[Chorus 1]
'Cause from [F]where [C]I'm standin'
you got a [G]long climb [Am]ahead
I'll be [F]there to wipe [C]the vomit
when you [G]cannot lift [Am]your head
Because a [F]lover doesn't [C]leave
when [G]times like these [Am]get dark
I'll be [F]there to watch [C]the sunrise
when we [G]reclaim [Am]your heart

[Interlude 1]
[Am][G][F][C]
[Am][G][F][C]

[Verse 3]
And I'll [Am]pick you up [G]downtown
when you're [F]grinnin' with a bus[C]ted lip
'Cause you're [Am]not known for back[G]in' down
and those [F]boys are known for talk[C]in' shit
But [Am]now's about the [G]time, look,
you [F]really got to de[C]cide
Are you [Am]gonna be a [G]good man to me
or die the [F]way your mother [C]died

[Chorus 2]
'Cause from [F]where [C]I'm standin'
you got a [G]long climb [Am]ahead
I'll be [F]there to wipe [C]the vomit
when you [G]cannot lift [Am]your head
Because a [F]lover doesn't [C]leave
when [G]times like these [Am]get dark
I'll be [F]there to watch [C]the sunrise
when we [G]reclaim [Am]your heart

[Outro 1]
[Am][G][F][C]
[Am]You don't have to [G]drink tonight
why [F]don't we just get some [C]sleep
'Cause I'm [Am]tired of cryin' in [G]driveways
as you [F]slur the words you [C]speak
