G 
Single six months yesterday 
D 
Thought I outta celebrate 
C                            D                   G 
So I went down to grab a couple beers 
          C                                           D G 
And I got so drunk I ripped my pants I asked the bouncer for a dance 
C                                                 D G 
Thanked him as he threw me out I woke up that ole Waffle House 
            C                                    D G       D/F# 
With a shiner' and a wild brunette she don't know my real name yet 
C                                 Am    D 
Well no I ain't over you 
 
 
                          G      C                          D 
But I'm doin' my best every day and every night 
                           G         C                           D 
Hangin' on by a thread that's stretched just a little too tight 
  Em                          A                    G C 
If I can't find some peace of mind I'll take what I can get 
                            D 
I ain't doin' much good but I'm doin' my best  

 
G     C     D     G    C    D 
 
G              C                  D 
I decided I'd get smart and have a long talk with my heart 
C                    D                        G 
at some quiet spot outside of town 
     C 
 so I took my best friends Pontiac 
  D                        G      C 
I drove it like a maniac right into the reservoir 
D                                                             C 
I guess we ain't best friends no more 
 

                         D                              G D/F# C 
Just my luck a cop came by who I beat up in Junior high 
                                                  D 
  He said I better have a good excuse 
 
Repeat Chorus 1x 

Bridge: 
G  D/F#  Em                                           A 
         Someday I might just join the human race again 
    C                                                       D 
If I can ever find a place to show my face again 
G       C            D                                G  C  D 
Yeeeeeaaaaaahhhhh       I doin my best 
 
Repeat Chorus....
