E*                 D 
Bitter sweet thing, could this be a dream 
D                                A       E 
Or just the same nightmare that keeps me awake 
E*                 D 
Feel it in my brain, tall shot of pain 
D                              A           E 
Pour a little up now, for the love that we made 
E*                     D 
I feel it in the morning, you're still here in the morning 
D                                            A        E 
I see you, but you gone. Telephone the doctor, I'm not okay 
E*                      D 
The bottom of the bottle, to fill this empty heart up 
D 
A thousand proof don't change the truth 
A          E 
I dive in, but I can't
[Refrain]
        E         D 
I can't drink you away 
           D 
I've tried Jack, I've tried Jim, 
           A           E 
I've tried all of his friends 
             E         D 
But I can't drink you away 
          D                                A              E 
All these rocks, I can't swim out of this skin I'm living in, say 
E                 D                              D 
Now tell me, baby, don't they make a medicine for heart break 
A    E                 D 
Ohh, tell me baby, oh yeah 
                                 D                  A    E 
Now don't they make a medicine for heart break
[Strophe]
E*                                D 
Got a pounding on my brain, so I drowned it away 
D                                         A                E 
When the sun comes up tomorrow, You can find me doing the same 
E*                                        D 
'Cause I just can't forget, The way we turned out this bed 
D                                             A              E 
And now the only thing that sleeps here is a ghost of you instead 
E*                                  D 
I feel it in the morning, you're still here in the morning 
D                                              A        E 
I see you, but you gone. Telephone the doctor, I'm not okay 
E*                            D 
The bottom of the bottle, to fill this empty heart up 
D                                            A             E 
A thousand proof don't change the truth, I dive in, but I can't
