Intro
[E] [B] [B] [F#7] [B]
E--------------/9h10p7--/10-9-7---------b-r--------- B---9-12--9-12------------------10-9-7-5(7)5-5p3---- G-9----------------------------------------------4-- D--------------------------------------------------- A--------------------------------------------------- E---------------------------------------------------
[B] I don't want to [F#7] sober up to[B]night
I don't want to [F#7] act like things are [B] alright
And [E] I don't want to change just to [E7] make you think I'm [B] happy
That's my right, I don't want to [F#7] sober up to[B]night
I want to keep [R1] my mind a little hazy [R2]
I don't care if all my friends think I'm crazy [R3]
The way I treat myself [R4] I might be a little crazy
But that's alright, [R5] I don't want to sober up tonight [R6]
I'm here to drown another day of misery
I'm in here to spend one night without a mem'ry
And the way I'm drinkin' now there won't be any memory
But that's alright, I don't want to sober up tonight
