Intro
A# D#/A# x4
[Verse 1]
A# D#/A# A# D#/A#
It's another lonely evening
D#/A# Ab D#/A# Ab
In another lonely town
F5 A#5
But I ain't too young to worry
Ab D#
And I ain't too old to cry
A# D#/A# A# D#/A#
When a woman gets me down
A# D#/A# A# D#/A#
Got another empty bottle
D#/A# Ab D#/A# Ab
And another empty bed
F5 A#5
Ain't too young to admit it
Ab D#
And I'm not too old to lie
A# D#/A# A# D#/A#
I'm just another empty head

[Verse 2]
A# D#/A# A# D#/A#
Broke another promise
D#/A# Ab D#/A# Ab
And I broke another heart
F5 A#5
But I ain't too young to realize
Ab D#
That I ain't too old to try
A# D#/A# A# D#/A#
Try to get back to the start
A# D#/A# A# D#/A#
And it's another red-light nightmare
D#/A# Ab D#/A# Ab
Woah, another red-light street
F5 A#5
And I ain't too old to hurry
Ab D#
Cause I ain't too old to die
A# D#/A# A# D#/A#
But I sure am hard to beat
