Lyrics

Verse 1
Dice on the table, smoke in the air
Every smile hiding a prayer
I bet on red, but the wheel spun black
Just another night I can’t get back

Verse 2
Barroom angels with painted lies
See right through me with tired eyes
They say I drink like I’m killing pain
Truth is I drink just to feel the rain

Chorus
Bad luck and cheap whiskey
They follow me around
Every time I think I’m rising
I’m face down on the ground

[Solo]

Verse 3
Clock on the wall won’t let me forget
Every second another regret
I tell myself tomorrow’s clean
But tonight’s louder than I’ve ever been

Verse 4
Bartender nods like he understands
Pours another with a steady hand
He don’t judge, he don’t care
Just another sinner saying prayers

Bridge
If I drown tonight, don’t save me
I chose the water, let it take me

Outro
Bad luck and cheap whiskey
Still calling me a friend

[Solo]
Verse 5 (more breathy / intimate)
Ooooh-ooooh
Ahhh-mmm-ahhhh
Whoaaa-ohhhh
Mmmm-ohhhh
