Jeroen van Koningsbrugge en Waylon
Album - Songs Of Life
Key F#
[Intro] - F# /C# /G#m /G#m x2
[Verse 1]
F# C#
When I get home
G#m
I wash the smile off my face
F# C#
I look at the bottle
G#m
Can't stop it, drowning my days
B
Believe me, I understand
F#
The place I have in this world
B
And normally I'd never budge
C#
But sometimes it's just too much
[Chorus]
B
I know the glass is half full
F#
But somehow it feels like I'm empty
B
I know I should be thankful
F#
But lately all I feel is lonely
G#m
I'm high diving, low tides
B
And it's harder than ever before
G#m
And the whiskey, yeah
F# C# G#m
Ain't working no more
[Verse 2]
F# C#
It's hard to wake up
G#m
And force a smile back on my face
F# C#
Now I'm starting to worry
G#m
That it won't stay in it's place
B
Believe me, I understand
F#
The state that I'm in
B
This heartache is stronger than
C#
All the whiskey I'm taking in
[Chorus]
B
I know the glass is half full
F#
But somehow it feels like I'm empty
B
I know I should be thankful
F#
But lately all I feel is lonely
G#m
I'm high diving, low tides
B
And it's harder than ever before
G#m
And the whiskey, yeah
F#
Ain't working no mor
B/F#/B/F#
[Outro]
G#m
Because the whiskey, yeah
F#
Ain't working no more
