Cmaj7  G  Em        G
I can't expel the truth
It's much more than I thought I could do
And with time, my worth will stain
And split your heart from my name

Chorus:
     C     G
So drive away
      D            Em
Your mouth from my ears
     C       G
And waste a day
    D           Em
So I can think clearly

And what's left to wait for here
As my hands sleep, spent this last year
Choking the bottle's neck
That pulled you from my bed

Chorus:
So drive away
Your mouth from my ears
And waste a day
So I can think clearly
Drive away
Your mouth from my ears
And waste a day
So I can think clearly
