[Intro]

G   D  
Em  Cadd9
 
 
[Verse]

 G                        D
Out with my friends on a Friday night
             Em           
He's sitting to my left so 
  Cadd9
I look to the right
 G                   D
Walk to the bar and buy another round
         Em              
Here he comes walking up, 
         Cadd9
heart is beating loud
 
       G                         D
I can hear all the girls' voices in my head
         Em                      
Saying "gotta get back out there 
   Cadd9
and try again" 
 G                     D
Maybe I'm ready, it's been 7 months
      Em                Cadd9
So I grab the glass and chase a buzz, 

'cause
 
 
[Chorus]

     G
I'm better when I'm drinking
       D
Don't wanna be too sober
 Em
When I'm taking that chance
     Cadd9
And risking the hangover
 
 G                        D      
One or two shots and I'm falling 
          Cadd9
all over again
 
And it sinks in
 
                     G       D  Em  Cadd9
I'm better when I'm drinkiiiiiiing
 
 
[Verse]
         G                     D
Now I'm starting to stop being so closed-off
          Em                   
And he's making me laugh, and 
     Cadd9
it's making me talk
   G                      D
We go on for hours, it's true 

what they say
         Em                    Cadd9
A little bit really does chase away the pain
 
 
[Chorus]

     G
I'm better when I'm drinking
       D
Don't wanna be too sober
 Em
When I'm overthinkin'
     Cadd9
Don't wanna start all over
 
 G                        D      
One or two shots and I'm falling 
          Cadd9
all over again 
 
And it sinks in
 
                     G
I'm better when I'm drinking
 
 
[Break]

Cadd9                      
Cheers to the whiskey and 
                      G
goodbye to this heartbreak 
         D
And the past
Cadd9                                    
Here's to the future and maybe this time 
       D
I can make
 
Make it last
 
 
[Chorus]

     G
I'm better when I'm drinking
       D
Don't wanna be too sober
 Em
When I'm taking that chance
Cadd9
Risking my hangover
 
 G                        D         
One or two shots just to help me to 
            Cadd9
take off the edge     
 
Woh oh oh oh oh
 
 G                         D      
One or two shots  and I'm fallin' 
          Cadd9
all over again 
 
And it sinks in
 
                          G  D  Em D Cadd9
I'm better when I'm drinkiiiiiiiing
 
 
[Outro]
                     G     D  Cadd9
I'm better when I'm drinkiiiiiiiing
