Strum
D-DU-UDU
I  got a fresh tattoo of a broken heart
 You'd think I'd learn by now but I ain't that smart
 I got a pocket  full of nothing, head full of lukewarm beer
 I just wanted  to make myself  feel good
 Feel  like I've been understood
 I was wrong,  I've been wrong  three times  this year
I  pushed off from shore in this leaky boat
 With my only friend, a bottle of whiskey in my coat
 I was going  to drown my sorrows, discuss my attitude
 I lay down  on my back, I started  to curse
 Insulted  every planet in the universe
 Hey Jupiter,  if you're listening,  I didn't mean  to be that rude
  Hey  la, la, la, hey la, la, la, hey la, la, la,
  How hard can it be?
  Hey  la, la, la, hey la, la, la, hey la, la, la,
  How hard can it be?
  Let me tell you now,
  I just  ran out of whiskey and I'm stranded out  at sea
Now  as the light begins to fade the sun disappears
 I see a siren singing in a sea of tears
 I know  it's you, I can tell by your hair
 And my pulse  begins to quicken as I row  through the tide
 I want  to lay my head down at  your side
 Then you slip  into the sea, you're gone,  that  ain't fair
The  sea was as black as a pirate's soul
 A black velvet bag, a big dark hole
 Just reflections  of the mocking moon above
 Then a shooting  star shot across  the skies
 It was then  I began to realize
 I would give  it all away if I  could have your love
 (Chorus)
Now  I pulled myself together, had a little chat
 With my empty bottle and this little cat
 He'd been hiding,  he'd been there for a while
 Well I told  him how I missed you, how you made  me feel
 And even  though that cat  wasn't real
 It cheered  me up and it made  me smile
I  stood up in that boat and I laughed till I cried
 I danced a little two-step with my pride
 Then I thought  about jumping in again, I was so alone
 Well you know  I couldn't do it cause I'm standing  here
 It may  have been the liquor, it may  have been the fear
 Besides  how would that cat  have got back home?
 (Chorus x 2)

[Em]

[Em]I got a fresh tattoo of a broken heart
You'd think I'd learn by now but I ain't that smart
I got a p[D]ocket full of nothing, head full of lukewarm b[Em]eer
I just w[Em]anted to make mys[Bm]elf feel good
F[D]eel like I've been [A]understood
I was wr[G]ong, I've been wr[A]ong three t[D/F#]imes this y[Em]ear

[Em]I pushed off from shore in this leaky boat
With my only friend, a bottle of whiskey in my coat
I was g[D]oing to drown my sorrows, discuss my attit[Em]ude
I lay d[Em]own on my back, I st[Bm]arted to curse
Ins[D]ulted every planet in the [A]universe
Hey J[G]upiter, if you're l[A]istening, I didn't m[Em]ean to be that rude

   H[D]ey la, la, la, hey la, la, la, hey la, la, la,
   How hard can it b[Em]e?
   H[D]ey la, la, la, hey la, la, la, hey la, la, la,
   How hard can it b[Em]e?
   Let me tell you now,
   I j[G]ust ran out of whiskey and I'm str[A]anded [D/F#]out at s[Em]ea

[Em]Now as the light begins to fade the sun disappears
I see a siren singing in a sea of tears
I kn[D]ow it's you, I can tell by your h[Em]air
And my p[Em]ulse begins to quicken as I r[Bm]ow through the tide
I w[D]ant to lay my head down [A]at your side
Then you sl[G]ip into the sea, you're g[A]one, t[D/F#]hat ain't f[Em]air

[Em]The sea was as black as a pirate's soul
A black velvet bag, a big dark hole
Just refl[D]ections of the mocking moon ab[Em]ove
Then a sh[Em]ooting star shot acr[Bm]oss the skies
It was th[D]en I began to r[A]ealize
I would g[G]ive it all away if [A]I could have your l[Em]ove

(Chorus)

[Em]Now I pulled myself together, had a little chat
With my empty bottle and this little cat
He'd been h[D]iding, he'd been there for a wh[Em]ile
Well I t[Em]old him how I missed you, how you m[Bm]ade me feel
And [D]even though that c[A]at wasn't real
It ch[G]eered me up and it m[A]ade[D/F#] me sm[Em]ile

[Em]I stood up in that boat and I laughed till I cried
I danced a little two-step with my pride
Then I th[D]ought about jumping in again, I was so al[Em]one
Well you kn[Em]ow I couldn't do it cause I'm st[Bm]anding here
It m[D]ay have been the liquor, it m[A]ay have been the fear
Bes[G]ides how would that c[A]at have got back h[Em]ome?

(Chorus x 2)
