G
I wanna be drunk when I wake up
                          Em
On the right side of the wrong bed
And every excuse I made up
Tell you the truth I hate
    C
What didn't kill me
                          D  G
It never made me stronger at all.

Love will scar your make-up lip sticks to me
So now I'll maybe leave back there
I'm sat here wishing I was sober
I know I'll never hold you like I used to.

         Em                       D
But our house gets cold when you cut the heating
 G                  C
Without you to hold I'll be freezing
Em                D
Can't rely on my heart to beat it
  G                        C
'Cause you take part of it every evening
Em                          D
Take words out of my mouth just from breathing
 G                          C                  G
Replace with phrases like when you're leaving me.

       Am        C
Should I, should I?

Chorus:
                Em     G
Maybe I'll get drunk again
         Em     G
I'll be drunk again
         Em     G
I'll be drunk again
                  C  D
To feel a little love

I wanna hold your heart in both hands
I'll watch it fizzle at the bottom of a Coke can
And I've got no plans for the weekend
So shall we speak then
Keep it between friends
Though I know you'll never love me like you used to.

There maybe other people like us
You see the flicker of the clipper when they light up
Flames just create us, burns don't heal like before
You don't hold me anymore.

On cold days Coldplay's out like the band's the name
I know I can't heal things with a hand shake
You know I can't change as I began saying
You cut me wide open like landscape
Open bottles of beer but never champagne
We'll applaud you with the sound that my hands make.

Should I, should I?

Chorus

Em        G
All by myself
I'm here again
Em        G
All by myself
You know I'll never change
Em        G
All by myself
C       D Em
All by myself
          Em     G
I'm just drunk again
          Em    G
I'll be drunk again
          Em    G
I'll be drunk again
                  C  D
To feel a little love
