Tom : Bm
Em Bm Em
I get drunk and talk to God
Em Bm Em
I say I'm sorry for all the things I'm not
Em A
And I mean every word I say
Em A
And I promise I can change
Em Bm Em G
When I get drunk and talk to God
[Verse 2]
Em Bm Em G
When I talk to God I tell him why we're through
Em Bm Em
I tell him all the things I did and didn't do
Em A
I'll say, "I can't be alone"
Em A
And he'll say, "Son, you're on your own"
Em Bm Em G
'Cause when I talk to God I tell him why we're through
[Chorus]
Bm A Em
I wish that I could go to church but I'm too ashamed of me
Bm A Em
I hate the fact it takes a bottle to get me on my knees
Em A
And I hope he'll forgive the things you ain't forgot
Em Bm Em
When I get drunk and talk to God
[Instrumental]
Em A Em Bm

When I talk to God I thank him for the time
Em Bm Em
All those precious years that you were mine, all mine

I know he's a busy man, he'll help me if he can

So when I talk to God I thank him for the time
[Chorus]

Oh, when I get drunk and talk to God
