Table for One Lyrics

Somebody's Miracle
Key: D
Chords used:
Intro: G-D-A7-- x2
Verse 1:
I'm walking down in the basement
I'm leaning on the washing machine
I'm reaching back through a
hole in the wall's insulation
I'm pulling out a
bottle of vodka
Replacing that with a
pint of Jim Bean
I'm lying down on the
D D(hold)
floor until I feel better
Interlude: G-D-A7--
Verse 2:
It's morning and I
pour myself coffee
I drink it til the
kitchen stops shaking
I'm backing out of
the driveway
And into creation
And the loving spirit
that follows me
Watching helplessly
will always forgive me
Chorus 1:
Oh I want to die alone
With my sympathy beside me
I want to bring down all
those demons who drank with me
Feasting bleed through me
On my desperation
Verse 3:
I hide all the bottles in places
They find and confront me
with pain in their eyes
And I promise that I'll
make some changes
But reaching back it
occurs to me
There will always be some
kind of crisis for me
Chorus 2:
Oh I want to die alone
With my sympathy beside me
I want to bring back all
those moments they
stole from me
In my reverie
Darkening days end
Guitar Solo: G-A7-D-G-D-A7-
Chorus 3:
Oh I want to die alone
With my memories inside me
I want to live that life
When I could say
people had faith in me
I still see that
guy in my memory
Chorus 4:
Oh I want to die alone
With my sympathy beside me
I want to bring down
all those people
who drank with me
Watching happily
G D(hold)
My humiliation
