C#        G#          D#m
There’s a bug like an angel
A#m           C#
Stuck  to the bottom
      G#            D#m        A#m C#
Of my glass, with a little bit left
G#       D#m
As I got older
   A#m              C#
I learned I’m a drinker
G#           D#m              A#m
Sometimes a drink feels like family

C# G# D#m A#m
Family

Hey, what's the matter? Lookin' like your sticker
Is stuck on a floor somewhere
Did you go and make promises you can't keep?
Well, when ya break them, they break you right back

Chorus:
C#         F7
Amateur mistake
                     C#
You can take it from me
 C#   G#              D#m A#m
They break you right back
 C#  G#             D#m A#m
Brea-eak you right back

When I'm bent over wishin' it was over
Makin' all variety of vows I'll never keep
I try to remember the wrath of the devil
Was also given him by God
