There's candles at each table

Smoke fills the cracks

Honey, I stopped in to drink

Tomorrow I'll be back

I'll bet she thinks the world of me

She's walking out the door

Misery Tavern

It's the only place I know

I tried to get along somehow

Start loving someone new

Each time I make a start

I'm right back in that room

I'll sober up long enough

To find my way back in

Misery Tavern

It's the only place I know

Misery Tavern

Tonight I'll go down slow

Misery Tavern

It's the only place I know

There's candles at each table

Smoke fills the cracks

Honey, I stopped in to drink

Tomorrow I'll be back

I'll bet she thinks the world of me

She's walking out the door

Misery Tavern

It's the only place I know

Misery Tavern

Tonight I'll go down slow

Misery Tavern

It's the only place I know
