[Verse]
Cadd9           C 
Am I better off dead 
Am                G 
Am I better off a quitter 
Cadd9                   C 
They say I'm better off now 
Am                   G 
Than I ever was with her 
F                     Am             G 
As they take me to my local down the street 
            Em      F            Am             G 
I'm smiling but I'm dying trying not to drag my feet 
Cadd9          C           Am                G 
They say a few drinks will help me to forget her 
Cadd9             C      Am            G 
But after one too many I know that I'm never 
F             Am                      G 
Only they can see where this is gonna end 
             Em        F            Am              G 
But they all think I'm crazy but to me it's perfect sense
[Chorus]
C 
And my mates are all there trying to calm me down 
G 
'Cause I'm shouting your name all over town 
Am 
I'm swearing if I go there now 
F 
I can change your mind, turn it all around 
C 
And I know that I'm drunk but I'll say the words 
G 
And she'll listen this time even though they're slurred 
Am 
Dial her number and confess to her 
F 
I'm still in love but all I heard was nothing
[Instrumental]
Cadd9    C     Am     G
[Verse]
Cadd9        C            Am                   G 
So I stumble there, along the railings and the fences 
Cadd9                 C                Am          G 
I know if I'm face to face that she'll come to her senses 
F                       Am              G 
Every drunk step I take leads me to her door 
Em                       F 
If she sees how much I'm hurting 
       Am               G 
She'll take me back for sure
[Chorus]
C 
And my mates are all there trying to calm me down 
G 
'Cause I'm shouting your name all over town 
Am 
I'm swearing if I go there now 
F 
I can change your mind, turn it all around 
C 
And I know that I'm drunk but I'll say the words 
G 
And she'll listen this time even though they're slurred 
Am 
Dial her number and confess to her 
F 
I'm still in love but all I heard was nothing  
C 
  
G 
She said nothing 
Am                                    F 
Oh I wanted words but all I heard was nothing 
         C 
Oh I got nothing 
  
Nothing  
G 
I got nothing 
  
Nothing  
Am                                    F 
Oh I wanted words but all I heard was nothing
[Bridge]
Em    F 
  
C 
Oh sometimes love is intoxicating  
Em    F 
  
C 
Oh you're coming down your hands are shaking  
Em    F 
  
C 
When you realise there's no one waiting  
Em    F 
  
C 
  
Cadd9           C 
Am I better off dead 
Am                G 
Am I better off a quitter 
Cadd9                   C 
They say I'm better off now 
Am                   G 
Than I ever was with her
[Chorus]

Oh I wanted words but all I heard was nothing 
         C 
Oh I got nothing 
  
Nothing  
G 
I got nothing 
  
Nothing  
Am                                    F 
Oh I wanted words but all I heard was nothing
