[Intro]
D F#m G G x3
[Verse]
D F#m
Oh she loves my soul, but she hates my drinking
G
She never seems to know just what I'm thinking
D F#m
She knows not where I'm at nor where I'm from
G
And I don't know where she gets off trying to be my mum
C F Dm C F Dm
And I don't appreciate her concern
C F Dm C F Dm
It's my choice, if I want to crash and burn
D F#m
But I'm not crashing, and I'm not burning
G
Im in a constant state of observational learning
D F#m
Maybe I do it a bit too often while I'm sipping cups of wine
G
But it lightens up my view and the choice is only mine
[Chorus]
C F Dm C F Dm
Yeah she loves my soul but she, she hates my boozing
C
She never notices when I'm winning
F Dm C F Dm
Only notices when I'm losing
[Verse 2]
D F#m
Sometimes I light up, and keep her up all night
G
Maybe this has something to do with her plight
D F#m
She doesn't see the beauty, she sees foulness and depression
G
She doesn't understand how I grew this great obsession of it
C F Dm C F Dm
I know for sure even though it's quite unhealthy
C F Dm C F Dm
My cashflow may be low, but my inspiration is wealthy
{Instrumental}

[Verse 3]
D F#m
Oh she loves my soul, but she hates my drowning
G
She never seems to laugh when I'm dancing and I'm clowning
D F#m
She doesn't seem to realize that all her favourite songs of mine
G
Are written after downing at least two bottles of wine
C F D
Oh she smashes all the glasses in an attempt to make me stop
C F D
So I drink straight from the bottle as I dance and skip and hop
C F Dm
She cries at me, she screams at me, she tells me this must cease
C F Dm
She says "Bibby, won't you stop this rubbish? Stop it for me, please!"
D F#m
I tell her when she keeps her fingers out of my tobacco pouch
G D F#m G
Maybe then I'll consider sitting soberly on the couch, oi
[Outro]
D F#m
Oh she loves my soul, but she hates my drinking
G F# F E *Em
I wonder if she knows that my love for her is shrinking
