The Getting By

Lyrics

[Verse 1] I can barely even sip this whiskey But I know it's gonna help me when it hits me You're a goodbye wrecking ball, I'm all in pieces I can't quit losing weight and I ain't sleeping [Chorus] I'm getting through the bottles up on the shelf Getting through the hung-up, going through hell Getting to the light behind those curtains Getting to the other side of this hurting Getting drunk, getting stoned Getting over you getting gone Girl, it's killing me, but I'm Getting used to getting through the gеtting by [Verse 2] Mama called me up, said she's been praying Musta hеard what the folks 'round here have all been saying I could find a brand new town, but I don't want to 'Cause I'm getting on down the road up on this barstool [Chorus] I'm getting through the bottles up on the shelf Getting through the hung-up, going through hell Getting to the light behind those curtains Getting to the other side of this hurting Getting drunk, getting stoned Getting over you getting gone Girl, it's killing me, but I'm Getting used to getting through the getting by [Post-Chorus] Yeah, the getting by [Bridge] Gonna drown this drowning pain In a sea of neon smoke If I can't save myself Don't throw me a rope [Chorus] Yeah, I'm getting through the bottles up on the shelf Getting through the hung-up, going through hell Getting to the light behind those curtains Getting to the other side of this hurting Getting drunk, getting stoned Getting over you getting gone Girl, it's killing me, but I'm Getting used to getting through the getting by [Outro] Getting used to getting through the getting by
