    D        C#m    Bm          A
    Now that you're gone,   I'm sober every night

Verse 1:
E                        F#m
   I've been working all day
G#m                     E
   I've been shaking it loose
A                        Bm
   It's been raining for hours
          C#m         Bm
I've been spilling my juice
E                F#m
   Nothing means nothing
G#m                E
   I couldn't care less
A                      Bm
   And now that you're gone
  C#m        Bm
I can't even guess
         E              F#m
I've got   snakes in my cellar
         G#m             E
I've got     blood in my bed
A            Bm
Bombs in the closet
            C#m            Bm
They're all painted cherry red
      E               F#m
And a feel like a mad scientist
         G#m                E
I've got loose change in my head
A                         Bm
Nothing but trouble these days
      C#m           Bm
I eat bullets in my bread

Chorus:
D        C#m    Bm
Now that you're gone
    A
I'm sober every night
  D     C#m Bm
I can't get high
A
No, I can't get right
D   C#m   Bm

Verse 2:
Violent romantic
On a seven day binge
Losin' a gamble
But I get my revenge
Start thinking about thunder
And I get mad again
Soaking up electricity
Like bourbon and gin

(Chorus)

Verse 3:
Hallucinated green light
And I slammed on the gas
My performance ain't perfect
But it's loud and it's fast
Set sail for the new world
And I burned down the mast
Well, it wasn't the first time
And I know it won't be the last

(Chorus x2)
