Oh, I lie when I drink 
    E 
and I drink a lot 
      D                          E 
Don't believe me when I've had a few 
      A 
Oh, I lie when I drink 
    E 
and I drink a lot 
  D          E                A 
I only drink when I'm missing you 

       E 
I walk in  
                            A 
The bartender rolls his eyes 
       E                                 A 
At the same time, the waitress, she just smiles 
               A 
He's heard the truth about you 
               E 
She's heard it too, but slightly skewed 
D                E                   A 
I ain't lying, I broke your heart in two 

Oh, I lie when I drink... 

At closing time, I'm the last one out the door 
I tip that waitress, That bartender, I ignore 
I yell I'm never coming back 
That always makes 'em laugh 
They know me, I never keep my word 


Oh, I lie when I drink...
