Chorus 1:
E B/Eb
Bottoms up tonight
C#m
I drink to you and I
B/Eb
cause with the morning
comes the rest of my life
E B/Eb
and with this empty glass
C#m
I will break the past
B/Eb
cause with the morning
I can open my eyes
A
I want this to
B (hold) E-B/Eb-C#m-B/Eb- x2
be my awakening
Verse 1:
E
I give this one to you
G#m C#m
an anthem full of truth
I tell you now an epic tail
E/G# A E
of what you put me through
And even though you don't
G#m C#m
deserve one of your own
A melody a song about
E/G# A B
the life that you let go
A
I can't believe that I
still care enough to write
Chorus 2:
E B/Eb
Bottoms up tonight
C#m
I drink to you and I
B/Eb
cause with the morning
comes the rest of my life
E B/Eb
and with this empty glass
C#m
I will break the past
B/Eb
cause with the morning
I can open my eyes
A
I want this to
B (hold) E-B/Eb-C#m-B/Eb-
be my awakening

Verse 2:
E
Yes I miss you still
B/Eb C#m
And probably always will
I'm living with a busted
E/G# A E
heart that I will have until
E B/Eb
I find the strength I know
B C#m
its somewhere in my bones
So pull the curtain up again
E/G# A B
and get on with this show
A
At least you know that
I still care enough to write
Chorus 3:
E B/Eb
Bottoms up tonight
C#m
I drink to you and I
B/Eb
cause with the morning
comes the rest of my life
E B/Eb
and with this empty glass
C#m
I will break the past
B/Eb
cause with the morning
I can open my eyes
A B
And maybe I will see
C#m
a different destiny
Like maybe knowing you
B/Eb B A
at all was only a bad dream
B
I want this to be my awakening
Bridge:

No rest for the

wicked they say

Forgive me if

I try to change
