(Intro) G (verse) G The sun is gonna wake up shinin', it'll be the only thing that's blindin' Em When the buzz wears off. G My bloodshot eyes will remind me, of the pretty stranger sleepin' beside me Em When the buzz wears off. C Thought the haze could erase all the hurt that remains, Am C Am but believe me Tryin' to forget that you love somebody ain't easy.
(Chorus) G F#m Last night I got to thinkin', if I get to drinkin', maybe I could fly higher than the pain Em Girl, look for a minute, felt like I was winnin', wasn't even thinkin' 'bout your name C I knew the shots were a long shot Whiskey's just a temporary memory loss D But you're still gone, you're still gone, yeah you're still gone G When the buzz wears off. (Verse) G I swore as the night got older, you wouldn't be hangin' over my shoulder Em When the buzz wears off. D C Am I could smile for a while, I was strong as the drinks they were pourin', G Am Now I'm sober enough to see the truth in the light of the mornin'. (Chorus) G F#m Last night I got to thinkin', if I get to drinkin', maybe I could fly higher than the pain Em Girl, look for a minute, felt like I was winnin', wasn't even thinkin' 'bout your name C I knew the shots were a long shot Whiskey's just a temporary memory loss D But you're still gone, you're still gone, yeah you're still gone G Em When the buzz wears off. (Bridge) D C Am Thought the haze could erase all the hurt that remains, but believe me C Am Tryin' to forget that you love somebody ain't easy. (Outro) G Last night I got to thinkin', if I get to drinkin', maybe I could fly higher than the pain Em Girl, look for a minute, felt like I was winnin', wasn't even thinkin' ' bout your name C D I knew the shots were a long shot Whiskey's just a temporary memory loss G F#m Last night I got to thinkin', if I get to drinkin', maybe I could fly higher than the pain Em Girl, look for a minute, felt like I was winnin', wasn't even thinkin' 'bout your name C I knew the shots were a long shot Whiskey's just a temporary memory loss D But you're still gone, you're still gone, yeah you're still gone G When the buzz wears off. Em G Ooooooh, yeah Em When the buzz wears off.
