G Em
Well I got empty bottles and legal papers wrinkled up
all over the floor
Cadd9 D
My pen won’t write and my guitar doesn’t have a song in it anymore
G Em
Well I can write another love song, yeah, but first
you got to find someone to love
Cadd9 D
I could write another fight song, yeah, but there’s
got to be something to be proud of and they say
Chorus 1:
Cadd9 D G G/F# Em
Misery love’s company, but it damn sure ain’t lookin’ for me
Cadd9 D Cadd9 D
I’ll be alright, I just gotta find someone to break my heart
G
tonight
Going out walkin’ on Avenue В and I ain’t comin’ back until dawn
And find some stranger in a Greenich bar to shower
my affection upon
Well maybe she’ll stay ’til one fateful day
when we realize we’ve got nothin’ left
And maybe I’ll find she’s messed up my mind
and I can get back to doing what I do best and they say
Chorus 1
Solo
Bridge:
Am Em
Well all these A&R guys keep knockin’ on my door
Am
I guess the last batch wasn’t good enough
D D/C D/B D/A
cause they keep on wanting more and more and they say
Chorus 2:
Cadd9 D
Write what you know and it just goes to show,
G G/F# Em
you gotta write your own destiny
Cadd9 D
I’ll be alright, I just gotta find someone
Cadd9 D G
to break my heart tonight, they say
Cadd9 D G G/F# Em
Misery love’s company, but it damn sure ain’t lookin’ for me
Cadd9 D
I’ll be alright, I just gotta find someone
Cadd9 D G
to break my heart tonight
