GCD
Makin' money at 30 with a wife and a son
GA7D
Then a short 5 years later, it all comes undone
GCD
She's gone back to mama with the boy by her side
GDG
Now I'm wine drunk and runnin' with them on my mind
Chorus:
CG
I'm on the backside of thirty and back on my own
B7CD
An empty apartment don't feel like a home
CG
On the backside of thirty, the short side of time
DC
Back on the bottom with no will to climb
It's dawn Monday mornin' and I just called in sick
I skipped work last Friday to drink this month's rent
And when my friends ask me I tell 'em I'm fine
But my eyes tell the story that my lies can't hide
