Intro (x2): Dmaj7 Gmaj7 A A

Verse 1:
(nc)              Dmaj7
Drain a bottle of cheap red wine
                   Gmaj7 
Drift off and fall asleep at night
                       A 
Grab my coat and take a walk outside
                          A
Light a smoke and kiss my youth goodbye

                            Dmaj7
You see I'm just as good at wasting time
                             Gmaj7 
As John n' Paul were good at making rhymes
                        A 
Why do all the good ones have to die?
                         A
I wish I thought of that,

before I made you cry

Interlude: Dmaj7 Gmaj7 A A

Chorus:
Dmaj7                     Gmaj7 
Don't write your letters  to me
A                      A
Don't get wasted at the party
Dmaj7                      Gmaj7 
Don't address your letters to me
A                       A
Don't get wasted at the party

Interlude (x2): Dmaj7 Gmaj7 A A

Verse 2:
             Dmaj7
Why don't we wait?
       Gmaj7 
Why do I take the bait?
                A 
I'm filled with so much hate
             A
I'm sure you feel the same


             Dmaj7
Fly down the interstate
        Gmaj7 
I run a little late
       A 
Dinner starts at 8
              A
But you don't know, this is our last date

Chorus:
Dmaj7                     Gmaj7 
Don't write your letters  to me
A                      A
Don't get wasted at the party
Dmaj7                      Gmaj7 
Don't address your letters to me
A                       A
Don't get wasted at the party  (Ohhhh)

Post-Chorus (x2): Dmaj7 Gmaj7 A A 

Outro:
         Dmaj7
My hands begin to shake
         Gmaj7 
Why do I take the bait?
                A 
I'm filled with so much hate
       A
I wish I could stay
