I get tired at the end of every day and [Em] I know there's another on the way I [C] come home
stack the bills I've gotta pay before [G] it's over
crack a beer and I search my memory and I [E] think [Em] back to the way things used to be
but it [C] ain't no good she ain't coming back to me not [G] now or never
[C] [G]
[Em] Baby lives out [D] on the west side now she [C] got paintings on the wall
[G] shiny hardwood [D] floors and all [Em] still I wonder [D] where it all went wrong
and [C] I know that it ain't right but I [G] dream about [D] her every night and [G] then I wake
and I do it all again and [Em] come the weekend I'll be drinking with my friends but it [C] don't take long
before the night comes to an end with the [G] rising sun
and sometimes when I let myself forget I'll [Em] spend the night
with some girl that I just met but [C] it ain't no use for I can't help but regret the [G] things I've done
