[Verse1]
[E]Bitter sweet thing,[D]thing, could this be a dream
[D]Or just the same nightmare that k[A]keeps me [E]awake
[E]Feel it in my brain[D]brain, tall shot of pain
[D]Pour a little up now, for the l[A]love that we [E]made
[E]I feel it in the mornin[D]morning, you're still here in the morning
[D]I see you, but you gone. Telephone the doctor[A]doctor, I'm not[E]not okay
[E]The bottom of the bottle[D]bottle, to fill this empty heart up
[D]A thousand proof don't change the truth
[A]I dive in, [E]but I can't
[Chorus]
I can't [E]drink you [D]away
I've tried [D]Jack, I've tried Jim,
I've tried [A]all of his f[E]friends
But I can't d[E]drink you a[D]away
All these [D]rocks, I can't swim out of this s[A]skin I'm living [E]in, say
[E]Now tell me, baby,[D]baby, don't they make a medicine for[D]for heart break
[A]Ohh, [E]tell me baby, oh y[D]yeah
Now don't they make a medicine fo[D]for heart break [A] [E]
[Verse2]
[E]Got a pounding on my brain, so I d[A]drowned it away
[A]When the sun comes up tomorrow
You can fi[E]find me doing the s[B]same
'Cause [E]I just can't forget
The way we tu[A]turned out this bed
And no[A]w the only thing that sleeps here is a g[E]host of you ins[B]tead
I f[E]feel it in the morning, you're sti[A]still here in the morning
I s[A]see you, but you gone. Telephone the doctor, [E]I'm not o[B]okay
The [E]bottom of the bottle, to f[A]fill this empty heart up
A th[A]thousand proof don't change the truth
I di[E]dive in, but I c[B]can't
[Chorus]
I can't [E]drink you [D]away
I've tried [D]Jack, I've tried Jim,
I've tried [A]all of his f[E]friends
But I can't d[E]drink you a[D]away
All these [D]rocks, I can't swim out of this s[A]skin I'm living [E]in, say
[E]Now tell me, baby,[D]baby, don't they make a medicine for[D]for heart break
