 E               A             E
Dark-hair girl, too much Jack Daniel's
A        E                      B            E
I'll be honest right now, I am too drunk to handle
E                        A       E
Dark-brown eyes, with a neck tattoo
      A       E               B              E
I am next to you, but I'm a thousand miles away

E            A           E
Wildflowers picked on a hill-side
A         E               B             E
You just let die, I swear I learned decay

E                       A             E
People come, and they stay, and they go
    A                    E               B        E
Someone, please let me know when growing up grew so
old

Chorus:
             A             E             B
'Cause, the sober side of sorry ain't a safe
         C#m
place to be
           A         E                   B
There's a cigarette rolling through the tips of
         C#m
clenched teeth
   A          E          B           C#m
I don't need much, just somewhere to sleep
    A             E               B              C#m
Someone please remind me who the hell I'm used to be
     A             E             B             C#m
The sober side of sorry ain't a safe place to sleep
     A             E             B             C#m
The sober side of sorry ain't a safe place to be

Dark-haired girl, summer time crop top
In a '89 drop top, rolling eyes at me
Is it love, is it lust, or leavin'?
Am I awake or dreamin'? The woman I need
Wildflowers, and a neck tattoo
I am next to you and I ain't ever gonna stay
I remember a time I was sober
But those days are over, I need a beer to celebrate

Chorus:
'Cause the sober side of sorry ain't a safe
place to be
There's a cigarette rolling through the tips of my
teeth
I don't need much just somewhere to sleep
Someone please remind me who the hell I used to be
The sober side of sorry ain't a safe place to sleep
The sober side of sorry ain't a safe place to be

'Cause the sober side of sorry ain't a safe
place to sleep
There's a cigarette rolling through the tips of my
teeth
I don't need much just somewhere to sleep
Someone please remind me who the hell I used to be
The sober side of sorry ain't a safe place to sleep
The sober side of sorry ain't a safe place to be

(Ah, every-everything I had)
(That, that was everything I had)
