G B7 Em
I only smoke when I drink… I only drink when I’m lonely.
G B7 Em C
I numb myself when I think… I’m not the one that you’re holding
G
When I remember the time you said you were mine
B7 Em A
and I was your prize and you were my Romeo
G D G C G
I only smoke when I drink… I only drink when I’m lonely
G B7 Em
I only cuss when I’m mad, I’m only mad when I hate you.
G B7 Em C
I only cry when I’m sad, I’m only sad ‘cause I miss you
G B7 Em A
And when I lay in my bed with somebody new and he doesn’t hold me like you used to do
G D G C G
I only cuss when I’m mad, I’m only mad when I hate you
C D G C G
And every time that I come here to this bar…
Em A D
Oh I smoke and I drink I cuss and I fight I gin every inch of this broken heart
G B7 Em
I only flirt when I’m drunk, I’m drunk ‘cause I want attention.
G B7 Em C
I’m substituting your love, with just another addiction
G
Oh I ain’t proud of myself it’s bad for my health
B7 Em A
But I’m blaming you the one who destroyed me
G D Em A
I only smoke when I drink, I only drink when I’m lonely…
