Got no money in my pocket, the bartender's got it
Guess I spent it all trying to forget
You left me with nothing, but bourbon in my stomach
Chasin' you with a little regret

Girl, I'm at an all time low
Doing anything to let you go

Bar tabs five nights a week
Another twenty for the band playing something for me
It gets expensive when your hearts as broke as mine
And baby I've been paying for it every night

There's something missing when I'm with somebody else
Spending every bit of time I got, gettin' through hell
Now I got nothing but your memory left to lose
Girl, that's just the cost of living without you

If I had to guess, this pounding in my head
It ain't goin' away anytime soon
I'm meltin' all the ice, in Memphis tonight
Smokin' Reds in the city of blues

Girl, I'm at an all time low
Gettin' higher than a Deadhead show

Bar tabs five nights a week
Another twenty for the band playing something for me
It gets expensive when your hearts as broke as mine
And baby I've been paying for it every night

There's something missing when I'm with somebody else
Spending every bit of time I got, gettin' through hell
Now I got nothing but your memory left to lose
Girl, that's just the cost of living without you

Bar tabs five nights a week
Another twenty for the band playing something for me
It gets expensive when your hearts as broke as mine
And baby I've been paying for it every night

There's something missing when I'm with somebody else
Spending every bit of time I got, gettin' through hell
Now I got nothing but your memory left to lose
Girl, that's just the cost of living without you
