G C D

Makin’ money at 30 with a wife and a son

G A7 D

Then a short 5 years later, it all comes undone

G C D

She’s gone back to mama with the boy by her side

G D G

Now I’m wine drunk and runnin’ with them on my mind

Chorus:

C G

I’m on the backside of thirty and back on my own

B7 C D

An empty apartment don’t feel like a home

C G

On the backside of thirty, the short side of time

D G

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
