[Intro]
Em
[Verse 1]
Em
If I'm underneath the table
G
Then pour me another drink
C
Oh, I don't want to remember
B
I don't even want to think
Em
I'm a slave to my addiction
G
I'm a hazard to myself
C
On a fast ride to prediction
B
Oh, I'm heading straight to hell
[Pre-chorus]
C
When I throw up at your window
G
You should confiscate my key
C
I would drive you off the fucking wall
Am B
To late to believe
[Chorus]
Em G
I tried so hard to change
C
But the devil locked my door
B Em
I'll wear these heavy chains around my neck like a prisoner
G
I just wanna love
C
But he won't let me go
B
Loosen up my chains
Em
Oh, I'm a condemned prisoner
[Verse 2]
Em
I'm sober in the spotlight
G
With the city at my feet
C
But I was a dead man walking
B
Nothing ever comes for free
Em
So I moved on down to London
G
Where I traded in my soul
C
I could not fill my heart
B
With other's one night stands and gold
[Pre-chorus]
C
So throw me out your mom's house
G
I'll be living there too long
C
Well she never liked me anyway
Am B
Cause she knows I'm not that strong
[Chorus]
Em G
I tried so hard to change
C
But the devil locked my door
B Em
I'll wear these heavy chains around my neck like a prisoner
G
I just wanna love
C
But he won't let me go
B
Loosen up my chains
Em
Oh, I'm a condemned prisoner
[Bridge]
[...]
Am B
Pour me another drink
Em G C
It always ends the same
B
I'm a condemned prisoner
[Chorus]
Em G
I tried so hard to change
C
But the devil locked my door
B Em
I'll wear these heavy chains around my neck like a prisoner
G
I just wanna love
