         A                  C#m 
 Got drunk by myself last night
             bm                              A 
 & they say thats no way to make things right
                                        E 
 I just didnt have anything better to do
         A                           E    
 The dog was asleep on the living room rug
               D                            A 
 And I watched a show about a crime of drugs
              A                  E                A 
 Punished a bottle of bourbon until it was through
        A              C#m    
 I dont care that I cant sleep
        bm                       A 
 Id just as soon stay up all week
              A                               E 
 Might get some things done while others dream
           A                          E 
 The heater broke and the room got cold
              D                         A    
 And my knees and ankles say Im getting older
         A                         E       A 
 The phone finally rang but it wasnt for me
 
 Chorus:
           D                E  A 
 If everyone should be together
              E               bm 
 I guess no one would be alone
   E                                A 
 Thats a lot of tradeoffs in the end
   E                              D 
 Somewhere in the fields of heaven
      A                             D 
 Proud Souls laugh and love together
     A                   E                    A 
 Some where between passion and losing friends
 
 Sleep finally came but I woke up alone
 And my head was next to the telephone
 A gave the sun a cussing as I drew the shade
 One thing that seems always true
 When Im hung over the sky is blue
 A rough night for me makes a hell of a day
 
 I believe in ghost and democracy
 And that each man should leave his legacy
 That mans work great or be it small
 But I dont believe in everything
 Like the designated hitter, or that diamond rings
 Can make love last for ever for one and all
 
 Chorus:
 
 (Repeat) Somewhere between passion and loosing friends
 
 This is how I play the song and it sounds pretty good. These Guys are
 awesome in concert, if you ever get a change go see them.
