V6

Verse 1: Yeah, a sober mind is much better at thinkin’ But a broken heart only gets better with drinkin’ That wagon ain't no good when good love is fadin’ away A lawn chair is good for relaxin’ and chillin' But that won't quite get me past what I'm feelin’ This fan on the ceilin’, like me, yeah, it wants you to stay Chorus 1: I'm wastin’ away right here in my chair Got a sink full of dishes and oil in my hair This ol' truck, like us, ain't goin' nowhere The truck, I can fix, but “us” can't be repaired Verse 2: Your memory is killin’ me, girl, I can't take it I'm right where you left me, far as I can make it You may have moved on, but your memory is hangin’ around The hand on the clock sure don't sound like it's tickin’ I'm stuck in first, ‘cause damn this transmission My heart is a wasteland, my mind is a tickin' time bomb Chorus 2: I'm wastin' away like my ‘02 V8 The engine keeps stallin’, I can't catch a break I might get it goin', but it won't be the same The shotgun is empty, no spark for a flame (Instrumental Solo) Chorus 3: I'm wastin' away right here in this bed Memories of you won't get out of my head I'm stuck in this moment, my heart's full of lead Gotta sew up my heart, but I can't find the thread End-Verse: Yeah, a sober mind is much better at thinkin’ But a broken heart only gets better with drinkin’ That wagon ain't no good when good love is fadin’ away
