[Verse 1]
D        Bm    A     Bm
It's the drunk in my past
D         Bm        A
Shuffling by like a train
D      Bm            A      Bm
Sounds on its tracks like a ride
D      Bm              E
Like a ride that don't last
D      Bm         A      Bm
Swears each drink is the last
D         Bm            A
Tells the same lie each night
    D            Bm
And breaks every promise
         A        Bm
Till she makes me go crazy
D           Bm          E
She's gonna drive me to drinking
 
 
[Chorus]
          G           F#
There's a drunk in my past
    G              F#
The one who let me down
    G       F#           E
Who wasn't around when I needed
          G           F#
There's a drunk in my past
    G           F#
Who swears each drink is the last
G         F#               E
Thought I give him another chance
          G           F#
There's a drunk in my path
G              F#
Each time I go past my house
    G         F#          E
I'm trying to find my way home

[Verse 2]
   D           Bm
My door way is blocked
   A            Bm
By doomsday for certain
     D                  Bm
When your own key don't fit
              A
You know it's curtains
         D            Bm
Oh well, never a dull moment
A              Bm
Never a moment passes
     D       Bm                 E
When someone dull don't pass me by
  D        Bm
I love her like a sister
     A          Bm
That drunk that girl
D     Bm               A
Why I wish her all the best?
D          Bm
That's all that's left
       A        Bm
'Cause she took the rest
    D    Bm   E
One heck of a past
 
 
[Chorus]
          G           F#
There's a drunk in my past
    G              F#
The one who let me down
    G       F#           E
Who wasn't around when I needed
          G           F#
There's a drunk in my past
    G           F#
Who swears each drink is the last
G         F#               E
Thought I give him another chance
          G           F#
There's a drunk in my path
G              F#
Each time I go past my house
    G         F#          E
I'm trying to find my way home
