      Em          D
Am I better off dead
      Bm            A
Am I better off a quitter
      Em                  D
They say I'm better off now
        Bm            A
Than I ever was with her
         G             Bm               A
As they take me to my local down the street
            F#m      G           Bm              A
I'm smiling but I'm dying trying not to drag my feet

They say a few drinks will help me to forget her
But after one too many, I know that I'm never
Only they can't see where this is gonna end
They all think I'm crazy but to me it's perfect sense

Chorus:
        D
And my mates are all there trying to calm me down
             A
'Cause I'm shouting your name all over town
Bm
I'm swearing if I go there now
G
I can change your mind, turn it all around
        D
And I know that I'm drunk but I'll say the words
            A
And she'll listen this time even though they're slurred
Bm
Dial her number and confess to her
G
I'm still in love but all I heard was nothing

So I stumble there,
along the railings and the fences
I know if I faced her face,
that she'll come to her senses
Every drunk step I take leads me to her door
If she sees how much I'm hurting,
she'll take me back for sure

Chorus

A
She said nothing
Bm                                     G
Oh I wanted words but all I heard was nothing
          D
Oh I got nothing
Nothing
A
I got nothing
Nothing
Bm                                     G
Oh I wanted words but all I heard was nothing

Ohh, sometimes love's intoxicating
Ohh, you're coming down, your hands are shaking
When you realize there's no one waiting

Am I better off dead
Am I better off a quitter
They say I'm better off now
Than I ever was with her

Chorus

She said nothing
Oh, I wanted words but all I heard was nothing
Oh, I got nothing
I got nothing
Oh, I wanted words but all I heard was nothing
Ohh I got nothing

(I got nothing)
I got nothing
I got nothing
