Lyrics

FOR HE WHO DRINKS ALONE

verse1
FOR HE WHO DRINKS ALONE THE PARTY NEVER ENDS
RAISE A GLASS WITH MISTER MISERY
HEARTACHE AND MISFORTUNE ARE HIS ONLY FRIENDS
NEXT ROUND IS ON TRAGEDY

chorus1
NIGHT AFTER NIGHT ON THE SAME BARSTOOL
HOLDING COURT TO AN EMPTY ROOM
FOR HE WHO DRINKS ALONE
SAYS HE ONLY DRINKS ALONE
IF NO ONE'S THERE
AND NO ONE'S ALWAYS THERE FOR HE WHO DRINKS ALONE

verse2
FOR HE WHO DRINKS ALONE THE PARTY NEVER ENDS
TOASTING TO THE GHOSTS OF LONG LOST FRIENDS
IN EACH AND EVERY GLASS FLOATS WHAT MIGHT'VE BEEN
HIS MISERY WILL FIND NO COMPANY

chorus2
EACH DAY BEGINS LIKE IT CONCLUDES
DRINKS TOO MANY FRIENDS TOO FEW
FOR HE WHO DRINKS ALONE
SAYS HE ONLY DRINKS ALONE
IF NO ONE'S THERE
AND NO ONE'S ALWAYS THERE FOR HE WHO DRINKS ALONE

solo

chorus3
NIGHT AFTER NIGHT ON THE SAME BARSTOOL
HOLDING COURT TO AN EMPTY ROOM
FOR HE WHO DRINKS ALONE
SAYS HE ONLY DRINKS ALONE
IF NO ONE'S THERE
FOR HE WHO DRINKS ALONE
SAYS HE ONLY DRINKS ALONE
IF NO ONE'S THERE
AND NO ONE'S ALWAYS THERE FOR HE WHO DRINKS ALONE
AND NO ONE'S ALWAYS THERE FOR HE WHO DRINKS ALONE
