I thought that alcohol was just for those with nothing else 
   A
to do
A                             A/G#                      A/G                             D
I thought that drinking just to get drunk was a waste of 
 E                  A
precious booze
A                   A/G#                             A/G                                  D
But now I know that there's a time and there's a place 
            E              A
where I can choose
A                      A/G#                            A/G                            D        E
To walk the fine-line between self control and self abuse.

A              E
trying on your camisole

F#m            D                 E            F#m
