| Am - | - - | Dm - | G Em |
[Verse 1]
Am
I wanna tell you a story
Dm G Em
Ain't got no characters in it but me
Am
I wanna sing you a sad song
Dm G Em
Most of it I don't expect you to believe
Am
It starts off just the whiskey and wine
Dm G Em
Some miles of travel and some real good times
Am
But it ends in a dark corridor
Dm G Em
Where there ain't no windows and there ain't no doors
Am
Well that's me
[Chorus]
Dm G Em
Just a drinkin off this bottle and a driftin out to sea
Am
Well that's me
Dm G Em
Just a sittin here starin and a shakin like a leaf
Am
Well that's me
Dm Em
Just a leanin on my shovel in this graveyard o' dreams
Am
Yeah that's me
Dm Em Am
Just a leanin on my shovel in this graveyard o' dreams

[Verse 2]
Am
I wanna take you to a shipwreak
Dm G Em
A thousand miles underneath the Black sea
Am
Looks like everybody's sleeping
Dm G Em
But look close they are dead indeed
Am
I wanna lead you to an armchair
Dm G Em
Deep back in the files of my mind
Am
I wanna sit you in the candle's light
Dm G Em
Where I've been spendin all of my time
Am
Well that's me
[Chorus]
Dm G Em
Just a drinkin off this bottle is it drinkin off o'me
Am
Well that's me
Dm G Em
Just a sittin here starin and a shakin like a leaf
Am
Well that's me
Dm Em
Just a leanin on my shovel in this graveyard o' dreams
Am
Yeah that's me
Dm Em Am
Just a leanin on my shovel in this graveyard o' dreams
