Terre Roche - The Unrecovered One

[Intro]
Am

[Verse 1]
Em
Here I am, I'm the unrecovered one
Am
You can talk to me if you want to
Dm
If you want to you can shun me

[Verse 2]
Am Em
I stumble through the streets with my pride and my arrogance
Am Dm
I spit right in your face when you invite me to dance
Am Em
I go months and years at a time terminally unique
Am Dm
With my pills and my bottle of wine
Am Em
I am very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very weak

[Verse 3]
Am Em
I can't get out of bed, the hangover's got my head
Am Dm
So I forgot to take the garbage out and put the kid to bed
Am Em
We're all wandering around in my house
Am Dm
Like the night of the living dead
Am Em
I'm someone that you can look at and be glad
Am Dm
You're not me instead

[Verse 4]
Am Em
Underneath your sobriety and your piety and your quiet
Am Dm
There's a human being there who's got a spirit
Am Em
And has to learn how to fly it
Am Dm
The controls are on the panel
Am Em
And the manual's in the flotation device
Am Dm
But if it comes to using that
Am Em
You've already crashed through thin ice

[Verse 5]
Am Em
I'm not saying I'm better than you
Am Dm
I feel like you're saying you're better than me
Am Em
You say "Tough luck I sobered up and now I'm running the company"
Am Dm
Your Higher Power he's like my god
Am Em
He'll take you out in a flash, you'll see
Am Dm
And do the same for all your loved ones
Am Em
And the ones like me you pity
