Drinkers On The Dry
I've only got a live version of this song but it sounds good.
Intro
Am F C E
Verse
Am F C E
The song we sing in silence
To bring it slowly where I leave
We throw it up and break down
We're in this where I leave
The drink is gonna mend us
And save us
And feel......
Chorus
Am F G E
The drinkers on the dry
You're right
But I can't try
To give it up and remember
Everyone that I have lost
The friends I know and the ones I forgot
Instrumental verse
Chorus
