When I Was Drinking Cifras

When I was drinking
     A
When I was with you
E                      A
Living it up when the rent was due
     C#m         E7        A
With nothing and no one to live up to 
D#7                G#m
You and me dying on the vine
D#7               G#m
Holding hands and drinking wine
    A                        E        A      E
Now I'm not the same girl I left behind with you

[Verse 2]
E
Twelve bars behind us
A
And twelve bars to go
E                        A
Bottles of beer lined up in a row
C#m          E7       A
One for each hour you didn't show 
D#7             G#m
You and me dying everyday
D#7                 G#m
Getting high just to pass away
    A                       E           A      E
But that's not the reason I couldn't stay with you

[Verse 3]

Now I am sober
A
Now I'm alone
E                              A
Three years have gone by since you have gone
C#m         E7          A
Letting you go, letting me go on 
D#7                              G#m
But I'll raise a glass now to you and me
D#7                     G#m
To to lift me higher so I can see
A                            E       A   E A
Which of these blessings are killing me
