  D                          A
I talk too much, sometimes I drink too much
        D            D/C#          D/C       E7
And in another light I get by on a stranger's touch
  G                           D/F#
I broke some hearts and I was broken too
      Bm                 A        D
And I guess I still will be if it weren't for you

I've been known to shout about things I know nothing about
I let stuff slip off my tongue that should never get out
Spent a thousand nights feeling born to lose
And I still might believe it if it weren't for you


Chorus 1
G                  D/F#
Here I am this old hat in hand
         Bm                           A
Throwing pebbles at your window I'm a sorry man
        D                           A
Cause I talk too much and tonight I drank too much
             D              D/C#       D/C        E7
I'm out here walking like a pirate on a homemade crutch
G                              D/F#
Lost at sea but seeing what is true
        Bm         A          D
And I'd always be lost if it weren't for you

Solo

It's way past midnight and this tired old porch light
And I'm looking for grace one more time in your forgiving eyes That 
still sees a man worth holding on to But I'd never be that man if it 
weren't for you

Chorus 2:
Here I am same old hat in hand
Kicking pebbles down your drive way baby I'm a sorry man Cause I talk 
Too much and tonight I drank too much And I'm out here walking like a 
Pirate on a sad homemade crutch Lost at sea but seeing what is true
And I'd always be lost if it weren't for you

I'd always be lost if it weren't for you
