Lived a day passed what I thought I'd ought to.

Ten years longer than I thought I would.

Saw sunrise after sunrise - wasted nights and tired eyes.

Verse 
G                                  C 
Got whiskey on my mind and on my breath. 
G                                      C 
I kept it close to me - there's nothing left. 
G                                          C 
I smoked my mind to nothing.  Lost my sense of what to do. 
D                                           C  G 
Lost everything in life worth losing, too. 

Bridge 
        Am                 G         
But I ought to slow down.  I shouldn't ask why. 
 Am                                   G 
I shouldn't sing the songs about my best friends who have died. 
Am                                  G 
I can't keep focused on the saddest moments of my life. 
 Am                               D 
Got to see a new horizon.  Got to see the brighter side.
