F 
Send a cab driver

To call for me here 
   C 
No need to describe me

Cause I ain't all here 
 

    C 
She told me to get lost 
    F             C 
And that's what I did 
         F 
But I've done it so well 
 
I don't know where I hid 
        G 
And she swore that she never 
 
Will see me again 
     G 
Hell I'll never find me 
 
In the shape that I'm in 
 
Refrão

Now I had to ask myself 
F         C 
If I were me 
    F 
And I was out drinkin' 
 
Well where would I be 
       G 
Then I thumb nailed the label 
 
And there I appeared 
       G  
Hiding out in a bottle 
 
Behind a 3-day old beard 
 
Repete Refrão 
 

       F  
Well I may be lonely 
         C 
But, I'm never alone 
      F 
Cause I've been beside myself 
G 
Since she's been gone
