cI love you more than any man,
But something's getting in the way.
GI Do you harm because I can,
For the second time today.
cVictims we are not of happenstance,
But you're a victim all the same.
GStuck inside a circumstance,
With your confusion and your blame.
G B#m
And when I get drunk,
You take me fhome
And keep me Gsafe
B#m
From harm.
When I get fdrunk,
You take me Ghome.
cI ask you for another second chance,
But then I drink it all away.
GAnd I get bellicose when you react,
For love, frustration and dismay.
cI was so delicate when we began,
So tender when I spoke your name.
GBut now I'm nothing but a partisan,
To my compulsion and my shame.
G B#m
And when I get drunk,
You take me fhome
And keep me Gsafe
B#m
From harm.
When I get fdrunk,
You take me Ghome.

Disappear without a trace.
