Chord reference Db, Fm, Ebm, Ab, Gb, Bbm
Rhythm tips ↓-↓↓↑

[Db] [Fm] [Ebm] [Ab] I [Db]empty the fridge, you [Fm]empty the bottle. We’re [Ebm]stacking up a mountain of hard [Ab]pills we’ll have to swallow.

It’s [Db]strange how we point, out [Fm]flaws in one another. We [Ebm]both got different vices and they [Ab]lead us to each other.

Cause [Db]you over-drink, I over-eat, we’re [Fm]under-thinking everything. And [Ebm]every night we swear it’s gonna change.

[Ab]But in a perfect world. [Gb]You get sober, I get skinny, [Db]we live-off of more than pennies. [Ab]Writing checks that we can cash, [Bbm]keeping all our promises. [Gb]We got faith, we got each-other, [Db]we grow up and we get better. [Ab]Things need fixing, we got plenty, when you get sober, I’ll get [Bbm]skinny.

When you get sober, I’ll get skinny. You [Db]want me to shrink, but I think [Fm]we should talk to one. Find a [Ebm]comfy couch and let out all the [Ab]hurt we’ve kept inside.

Since we were [Db]young and so numb, now we find [Fm]ways to cover up. If we keep [Ebm]going how we’re going, what will [Ab]we become?

[Ab]Cause in a perfect world. [Gb]You get sober, I get skinny, [Db]we live-off of more than pennies. [Ab]Writing checks that we can cash, [Bbm]keeping all our promises. [Gb]We got faith, we got each-other, [Db]we grow up and we get better. [Ab]Things need fixing, we got plenty, [Bbm]when you get sober, I’ll get skinny.

[Db] [Fm] [Ebm] [Ab] It’s easy to i[Db]magine, imagine, All our problems disappear like [Fm]magic, magic.

But in an honest world. [Gb]You’re not sober, I’m not skinny, [Db]we’re scraping by on borrowed pennies. [Ab]Writing checks they’ll never cash, [Bbm]breaking all our promises. [Gb]But we got faith, we got each-other, [Db]maybe we’ll grow old together. [Ab]Making up our happy ending, [Bbm]when you get sober, I’ll get skinny. [Db] [Fm] [Ebm] [Ab]

[Db]When you get sober, I’ll get skinny, [Fm]when you get sober, I’ll get skinny. [Ebm]When you get sober, I’ll get skinny, [Ab]when you get sober, I’ll get skinny.

[Db]It’s easy to imagine, [Fm]it’s easy to imagine.
