[Am][F][Am]

[Verse 1]
I [F]know I've had a few,
but doesn't mean that I'm too bussed
[Am]Couldn't drive right now,
but it doesn't mean I had too much
[F]Okay, maybe just a bit more
than the road allows for
Be[Am]lieve me, I could pound more,
ten rounds gone since round four
[F]They tell me I'm a lightweight,
tell me how to look on my face
It's [Am]priceless, blood red, toe to head,
never could I have enough vices
[F]I should call a taxi, but I got no cash left
But [Am]even if I had cash,
I still can't think of my address
[F]That's why I'm talking to you
God, everybody tears off
[Am]Please stay with me in the backseat
till the buzz wears off
[F]Sorry we don't talk much,
I hate that we lost touch
[Am]What you must think of me,
how I only call you when I'm drunk
[F]An d you deserve better from me
There's a third world country,
[Am]begging for some rain
While I dry heave in the back
alley junk heap
[F]Think I'm gonna stop now,
after another shot
And how could it hurt, [Am]couldn't hurt any worse,
knowing how I let myself [F]down.
Out of [Am]the depths have I cried unto thee,
O
Lord,
[F]Lord of my heart, hear my voice.
[Am]Let [F]thy ears be attentive to
the [Am]voice of my [F]supplication.
If thou, shouldest mark iniquities,
[Am]O[F]
[Am]Lord, who shall stan[F]d?
Who [Am]shall stand?
Stand, stand, stand
[F]It's 4 .30 a .m.
Coats covered in vomit
[Am]Eyes roll back quick, mama, no,
this isn't what you [A]wanted
[F]Sun so blitzed and he can't
even find his apartment
[A]Stumble on the sidewalk in the dark[Am]ness,
[F]armed hookers are heartless
Mama, please just tell me
that you ain't angry
[Am]I remember
Sunday school when you told
me that he'd save me
[F]If I just asked him,
God, please tell me how to ask right
I'd do it right [Am]now in front of all
of these triple -X black lights
[F]I leap and hit my knees like I've
seen the people do on
TV
I've [Am]seen [F]them raise their hands up [Am]high,
I'll [F]try [Am]anything
[F]Baptize me in the rain with the second
-hand smoke and the methane
While the man on the corner with the
Bible [Am]in his hand goes insane
[F]With the bass from the strip club,
it's the makeshift rhapsology
[Am]God, I'm so exhausted,
[F]but[Am] I want to offer you all of me
[F]The little bit that's left,
the little kid that left
[Am]Home [F]with the gospel,
[Am]and the synergy flicker on his breath
[F]The little bit that's left,
the little kid that left
[Am]Home with the gospel,
and the synergy flicker on his [F]breath
But there is forgiveness, if I may as we [Am]fear
I wait for the
[F]Lord
My soul does wait,
[Am]and [F]in h[Am]is w[F]ord[Am]s do I cr[F]y.
My soul waits [Am]for the
Lord more than they that
[F]watch for the morning.
I say, more than they that watch [Am]for the morning.
[F][Am][F][Am]
[F][Am][F][Am]
[F]Mama sang so sweet, I surrender all
[Am]Daddy [F]hugged me [Am]tight,
[F]I surrender all[Am]
[F]I was five years old, I surrender all
[Am]Papa cried for [F]me,
[Am]I surren[F]der al[Am]l
[F]Brothers prayed for me, I surrender all
[Am]That song saved me, I [F]surrender all
All y 'all saved me, I surrender all
[Am]All y saved [F]me, I [Am]surrender [F]all[Am][F][Am][F]
[Am][F][Am][F][Am][F][Am][F]
[Am][F][Am]
[F]I'm going [Am]to g[F]o to[Am]
[F]
Thank you for watching!
