   Eb  C#  F#  G#  B    (* N.C. stands for No Chord, meaning

             Eb            C#     F#             G#
It was the alcohol you said took away your common sense. You
       Eb             C#         F#            G#
don't remember a thing, unconciousness is your defense.
          Eb           C#                F#            G#
It's everybody's fault but yours and now we must forgive.
       Eb               C#              F#              G#
How can we hold a grudge when you can't remember what you

did but
B           C#         F#             Eb            B
It's not so easy to forgive no matter what you say. It's not
   C#         F#   N.C.                   G#      B
so easy to forget, it won't just go away. It will never be
    F#    G#      B            F#
the same. It will never be the same.
        Eb                  C#               F#
You'll never drink that much again, those intentions sound
         G#          Eb                             C#
just great. And while I'm glad to see you've learned, I
           F#                    G#
think it's just a little, a little too late. It's
     Eb           C#                 F#            G#
everybody's fault but yours, and now we must forgive. But
  Eb           C#                        F#             G#
how can we hold a grudge when you can't remember what you

did. . . .


Then just chorus twice, and that's it.
