One More Beer to Drown the Feeling

Instrumental Intro

Verse 1

Saw you laughing in the hallway

Wished that I could make you stay

Had a thousand words to tell you

But I always walked away

We were young and time was endless

Or at least that's what I thought

Now you're holding someone else's hand

And I'm drinking what I'm not

Chorus

One more beer to drown the feeling

One more night to play pretend

I was scared to say I loved you

Now I'm watching our story end

You were waiting for an answer

I was waiting to be brave

Now he's standing there beside you

With the words I never gave

Instrumental Break

Verse 2

Found your picture in my old phone

Still remember what you'd wear

Funny how I had forever

But I never took you there

Now the bottles keep me talking

To the ghost of what could be

You found someone who could tell you

Everything I couldn't speak

Chorus

One more beer to drown the feeling

One more night to play pretend

I was scared to say I loved you

Now I'm watching our story end

You were waiting for an answer

I was waiting to be brave

Now he's standing there beside you

With the words I never gave

Instrumental Break

Bridge

Maybe you were never mine

Maybe I just took too long

Now I'm learning one drink at a time

That silence can be wrong

Build-Up

Final Chorus

One more beer to drown the feeling

One more night to play pretend

I was scared to say I loved you

Now I'm watching our story end

You were waiting for an answer

I was waiting to be brave

Now he's standing there beside you

With the words I never gave

Outro

Here's to you and him tonight

Here's to all I left unsaid

I'll put down this final glass

And let go of what we never had
