  E
I realize I missed a day
    G                       C
But I'm too wrecked to care anyway
   E
I look around and see this face
  G                   C
What the hell have I lost my taste

D                   C
Don't want to find out
D                 C
Just want to cut out

My head explodes, my ears ring
I can't remember just where I've been
The last thing that I recall
I got lost in a deep black hole

Don't want to find out
Just want to cut out

Chorus:
     E
Blackout
I really had a blackout
Blackout
I really had a blackout
Blackout
I really had a blackout
Blackout
I really had a blackout

I grab my things and make a run
On my way out, another one
Would like to know before I stop
Did I make it or did I flop?

Don't want to find out
Just want to get out, yeah!

Chorus:
Blackout
I really had a blackout
Blackout (Yeah!)
I really had a blackout
Blackout
I really had a blackout (Yeah!)
Blackout
I really had a blackout

Yeah, yeah, yeah...
I really had a blackout, baby

Don't want to find out
Just want to get out

Chorus:
Blackout
I really had a blackout
Blackout (Yeah!)
I really had a blackout
Blackout
I really had a blackout
Blackout
I really had a blackout

Blackout
Blackout
Blackout
Oh, yeah....!
