Once my girl was conscious, through the better days with you
B A E
Then fame and fortune came your way and made a change of you
B A E
You climbed your ladder of success and I'm not on solid ground
B E
Then when it starts to crumble, pick me up on your way down
(Chorus)
A E A E
Pick me up when roads are shattered, when false friends cannot be found
B E
Oh you know I'll still be drinking, pick me up on your way down
(Verse 2)
B A E
I've hit the bottom of the glass, there's just one way to go
B A E
The world I've chosen for my own is one you'll never know
B A E
When folks say they don't know me, say I'm not on solid ground
B E
You will find me in my alley, pick me up on your way down
(Chorus)
A E A E
Pick me up when roads are shattered, when false friends cannot be found
B E
Oh you know I'll still be drinking, pick me up on your way down
(Chorus)
A E A E
Pick me up when roads are shattered, when false friends cannot be found
B E
Oh you know I'll still be drinking, pick me up on your way down
(Outro: B E E)
