[Verse 1]
                    Em
It gets lonliest at night Down at
            D                 C                     G
the liquor store beneath the neon sky Our moonlight
                                Em
6 AM the floor comes alive with lice The pan's
            D                   C
dried up so tight With hardened beans
            G D/F#     Em
We're hungry      So I lean on
        D             C
you sometimes Just to see you're still there

[Verse 2]
G
But these feet can't take the weight of
Em            D          C
one Much less two We hit concrete
Em          D              C
How were we born into this mess?
G        Am            G/B      C
I know I painted you a prettier picture baby
Em          D            C
But we were run out on a rail
G             Am           G/B   C
Fell from the wagon to the night train

[Chorus]
G              C   G
I kissed the bottle I should've been
        C  G
kissing you You wake up to an
C          G               C
empty night With tears for two
              G
tears for two

[Verse 3]
G                        Em
Cigarettes they fill the gaps
             D                  C
In our empty days In our broken teeth we're jonesing
G                          Em
Say mister can you spare a dime?
                         D                     C
Some change could make a change could buy some time
     G      D/F#       D
Some freedom     Or an ear to
         C
hear my story It's all I've got My fiction-

[Verse 4]
G                         Em
-beats the hell out of my truth
                      D                  C
A palm upturned burnt blue Don't call it sunburn
Em          D              C
You've been shaking on the job Just
G    Am         G/B     C
one drink ahead of your past
Em         D                  C
There's a white light coming up
G              Am          G/B     C
You draw the blinds hoping it'll pass

[Chorus]
G              C   G
I kissed the bottle I should've been
        C  G
kissing you You wake up to an
C          G               C
empty night With tears for two
G              C   G
I kissed the bottle I should've been
        C  G
kissing you You wake up to an
C          G               C
empty night With tears for two
          G
Tears for two
