The beginning is played on an acoustic guitar with only one strum per chord, emphasizing the syllable of the
word. The rest of the song is played on an electric (clean, no distortion). The entire song sounds fine with
open chords, however, the original is played with the powerchord versions of said chords. Tabs for those here:

[Chorus]
G C D G
Well I'm cracking one open with the boys by myself
G C D G
And everybody thinks that I need professional help
C G
But I don't wanna think about that anymore
C G
And just because I woke up on someone's floor
D
And asked who the fuck am I
C
I didn't know it felt good to cry
[Verse 1]
G C D
Yeah, started from the bottom and I'm still at the bottom
G C D
And I spent the night in jail turned out it wasn't the bottom
G C D
And I lost so many friends who knew that I was the problem
G C D G
And my life is like a pill that's getting harder to swallow
[Bridge]
C D G
Every girl I never had
C D G
Blame it on my mom and dad
And I don't need no one
C
Wish I had someone, anyone
[Chorus]
G C D G
Well I'm cracking one open with the boys by myself
C D G
And everybody says that I need professional help
C G
But I don't wanna think about that anymore
C G
And just because I woke up on someone's floor
D
And asked where the hell am I
C
I didn't know it felt good to cry
[Instrumental]
G C D (X2)
[Verse 2]
C D G
Well I fell asleep in summer and woke up in October
C D G
So I called up everybody but nobody came over
C D G
And why does getting sober make you feel like a loner?
C D G
And why does getting sober make you feel like a loner?
[Bridge]
C D G
Every girl I never had
C D G
Blame it on my mom and dad
And I don't need no one
C
Wish I had someone, anyone
[Chorus]
G C D G
Well I'm cracking one open with the boys by myself
C D G
And everybody says that I need professional help
C G
But I don't wanna think about that anymore
C G
And just because I woke up on someone's floor
D
And asked where the hell am I
C
I didn't know it felt good to cry
[Chorus]
G C D G
Well I'm cracking one open with the boys by myself

And just because I woke up on someone's floor
D
And asked where the hell am I
C
I didn't know it felt good to cry
