	  		  S1: I've seen a lot of people request this one all over the place, and
  it's already in the archive, but it's way off so I had to set things
  right. On the CD they use guitar , and it sounds better that way.
  During the verses and intro the B7, D7, and A7 are all bar chords., INTRO

  B7, D7, A7, A7-Bb7-B7, D7, A7

  VERSE ONE 
  B7 D7 A7 A7-Bb7
  Alchohol, my permanent accessory 
  B7 D7 A7 A7-Bb7
  Alchohol, a party time necessity 
  B7 D7 A7 F#m7
  Alchohol, alternative to feeling like yourself 
  D E A, E, A, E, 
  Oh, alchohol, I still drink to your health 

  CHORUS 
  A E F#m7 A7-Bb7-B7 D A E
  I love you more than I did the week before I discovered alchohol 

  VERSE TWO 
  B7 D7 A7 A7-Bb7
  Forget the cafe latte, screw the raspberry iced tea 
  B7 D7 A7 A7-Bb7
  A Malibu and Coke for you, a G. and T. for me 
  B7 D7 A7 F#m7
  Alchohol, your songs resolve like my life never will 
  D E A, E, A, E
  When someone else is picking up the bill 

  CHORUS (as above) 
  F#m7 D E F#m7
  Oh, alchohol, would you please forgive me? 
  D E F#m7 D E A, E
  For while I cannot love myself, I'll use something else 

  BRIDGE 
  A A/G# A/G D/F# D A
  I thought that alchohol was just for those with nothing else to do 
  A A/G# A/G Dm/F A
  I thought that drinking just to get drunk was a waste of precious booze 
  A/G# A/G Dm/F A
  But now I know that there's a time and there's a place where I can choose

  A/G# A/G D E
  To walk the fine line between self control and self abuse 

  During piano solo play intro

  CHORUS (as above) 
  E F#m7 B7 D7
  Would you please ignore that you found me on the floor 
  A E
  trying on your camisole?

  Oh, alchohol, would you please forgive me, for while I cannot love myself

  I'll use something else
