Em                   C
Kody sat down on the avenue
Em                         C
He tapped his feet to the humming of the highway
Em                                       C
He watched the light shine down on the broken glass
           G                     D
And thought well I don't got no reasons yet

And there it is and there it was
Now it was clear to all of us
We kept this hat of broken dreams
G                     D                   C
And we pulled them out, when we needed them around

Chorus:
G                      D                         Em
So please hand me the bottle I think I'm lonely now
                 C
(Lonely, you're lonely now)
G                     D                           A
And please give me direction I think the hurt set in
             C         G/B  G  D/F# Em C Em C
And I don't feel nothin'

There's a squeak hinge down on the back gate
It lets us know if he comes around
But I don't sleep that good anyway
And if you've never heard that silence,
it's a God awful sound

Chorus:
So please hand me the bottle,
I think I'm lonely now
And please give me direction,
I think I just caved in
And I don't feel nothing

Hey, I don't feel nothing, hey I don't feel nothing
There's nothing to feel good about here

Don't much get down to the avenue
I could drive, but it takes so much to get there
Don't get off on all the broken glass,
the cadillac scene
Well I've seen a lot of good things die and
I'm in an over emotional way

Chorus:
So please hand me the bottle,
I think I'm lonely now
And please give me direction,
I think the hurt sets in
So please hand me the bottle,
I think I'm lonely now
And please give me direction,
I think I just caved in
But it ain't nothing
