        Verse 1:

                       
Alcohol my permanent accessory
                    
Alcohol a party-time nessessity
                                   
Alcohol alternative to feeling like yourself
                                        
Oh Alcohol I still drink to your health.

        Chorus:
                             
I love you more than I did the week before
            
I discovered Alcohol

        
                                
Forget the Cafe Latte screw the raspberry Ice Tea
                           
A Malibu and coke for you an gin and tea for me
                                                             #m
Alcohol your songs dissolve like my life never will
                                        
When someone else is picking up the bill. . .

                             
I love you more than I did the week before
            
I discovered Alcohol

                                                 
Oh Alcohol, would you please forgive me
                                                                      
though I cannot love myself I'll use something else


                                                                   
I thought that alcohol was just for those with nothing else 
   
to do
                                                                                
I thought that drinking just to get drunk was a waste of 
                   
precious booze
                                                                                  
But now I know that there's a time and there's a place 
                          
where I can choose
                                                                                      
To walk the fine-line between self control and self abuse.

Solo:                   X3
On the Third hold on D to get back to the Chorus A
        

        Chorus 3:
                             
I love you more than I did the week before
                     
I discovered Alcohol
                                               
Would you please ignore, that you found me on the floor
              
trying on your camisole

                                         
Oh Alcohol, would you please forgive me
                                                                              
though I cannot love myself I'll use something else


-→ (repeat)
Will you please forgive me
