[Verse 1]
[D][Em]
[A]Wis[Em]h I c[A]ou[D]ld drink
[F#m]
[Em]Wish I cou[A]ld drink[Em][A][D]
Wish I could drink
Wish I could drink, [Em]uh
Wish I could drink, [D]uh
Wish I could [Em]drink, [D]uh

[Verse 2]
Uh [D]Lookin' at my
knuckles so white
[Em]Holdin' on to my hotel bed so tigh[D]t
'Cause I know if I let go I'm
gonna follow [Em]the sound
Of that piano out of my room [D]an d down
To the lounge where I'ma
mess it [F#m]all up
[Em]It's been four years since I reeked of alcohol,
[D]but
I've been to the gym
three times a day
Keep callin' my [F#m]wife and them to s[Em]ay
All of my trashcans are filled with coffee [D]cups,
but I still

[Verse 3]
Wish I [D]could drink
(Wish I could drink, wish I could [Em]drink,
wish I could drink)
Wish I could drink
(Wish I could [D]drink,
wish I could drink)

[Verse 4]
Lord knows I [D]can like [Bm]a fish
[D]Y'all I ain't just alcohol-
[A]ish (just alcohol- ish)
I'm starin' at that [Em]water
bottle wonderin' [A]if
Folks'll notice if I put a little [D]vodka in it
[Bm]Maybe rehab
[D]Ain't just a guest [F#m]house
Maybe I don't [Em]ever really [A]check out
Just appreciate the [Em]freedom from my
demons when they hush
And [A]fight the temptation when I just wish
I could [D]drink[F#m][Em]
[D][F#m][Em]

[Verse 5]
[Em]
[D]Uh
Wish I could drink
[F#m]Wish I could [Em]have a beer with my
sons [D]when they turn 21
But nah
I'ma be holdin' up water
sayin' [Em]cheers with 'em
Tryna smile back,
the [D]time flies tears with 'em
Prayin' to [Em]anyone who would
listen upstairs
They learn from my mistakes
[D]And not theirs

[Verse 6]
Maybe [D]it's in their blood
[F#m]I hope it isn't [Em](I hope it isn't)
Maybe they won't start
[D]'Cause they watched me
quitin'
Maybe they forgot [F#m](maybe they
forgot)
Maybe I'm for[Em]given
(maybe I'm forgiven)
I wish I could forgive me
[D]I wish I didn't

[Verse 7]
Wish I could [D]drink
(Wish I could drink, wish I could [Em]drink,
wish I could drink)
Wish I could drink
(Wish I could [D]drink,
wish I could drink)

[Verse 8]
Lord knows I [D]can like [Bm]a fish
Y'all I ain't [D]just alcohol-
[A]ish (just alcohol- ish)
I'm starin' at that [Em]water
bottle wonderin' [A]if
Folks'll notice if I [D]put a little vodka in it
[Bm]Maybe rehab
[D]Ain't just a guest [F#m]house
[D]Maybe I don't [Em]ever really [A]check out
Just appreciate the [Em]freedom from my
demons when they hush
And [A]fight the temptation when
I just wish I could drink

[Verse 9]
There's [D]this nightmare I keep havin'
It's the [Em]worst joke I can imagine
Someone slips a little [D]Jack in my
Coke behind my back
When I take a sip and taste it
I [Em]cannot believe I just wasted all that
struggle fightin' [D]from it
And I feel sick in my stomach
'Cause the thought
of startin' [Em]all over
Makes me want to get the opposite of sober,
so bad
And I'm [D]so mad I could kill
whoever did it

[Verse 10]
And I wake [D]up swingin'[F#m]
But [Em]all I hit is air
And I [D]realize I was just dreamin'
And I take a deep breath
[F#m]And I thank God th[Em]ere's
not a drop of Jack on it
[D]And I think, hey
Maybe there is such thing as
a good bad [Em]dream
'Cause at that [D]moment I don't

[Outro 1]
Wish I could drink
