I was always two drinks behind
Way out of my mind
D
You stood right there at the

You said a lightweight like me
Don't need no sympathy

I heard you got a wife
Some kids
And your life
Dm

You got a mortgage and a loan

And now you preach against success
And all that wretched mess

And burn your house to ashes
