Been running since the day I saw her
Should have turned and walked away
Old man Leo could have warned me
But chalk it up was all he'd say
Chalk it up
Chalk it up
Chalk it up
Chalk it up
Don't know where she's going to
Don't know where she's been
Don't know what she's gonna do
All I know is it's a sin
Chalk it up
Chalk it up
Chalk it up
Chalk it up
There's a time when I was sober
There's a time when I could see
Now it doesn't really matter
The river's whiskey and I'm the sea
Chalk it up
Chalk it up
Chalk it up
Chalk it up
No big problem far as I can see
It's all so plain to me
We're all some big mystery
Some like whiskey some drink tea
Chalk it up
Chalk it up
Chalk it up
Chalk it up
Once i had a love worth keeping
But it got too strange for me
Then I heard the whiskey calling
Life's more simple when it's just me
Chalk it up x2
Chalk it up
Chalk it up
Chalk it up
Chalk it
We're all running from something
Some people are running free
All I know is I need something
Chalk it up's just all right with me
Yeah
