Whisky and Tears

A-D-E-A
A D
You know the life that I've lived ain't been easy,
E A
I've had my share of heartache and pain
D
Between the women I loved and the women that left me
E A
And the women that still curse my name
D
But my heart's on the mend, 'cause I'm shit-faced again,
E A
My bottle's run dry And my money's all spent
D E
The Sun's coming up and I can't find my truck
A
I'm shit out of luck, again…
A D
Now I've drank all there is to be drunk around here
E A
I've pissed away everything that I held dear
D E
Now I'm getting drunk on my own bitter tears
A
God damn that Whisky and Beer
A D
Between the highways and byways and backwater roads
E A
I still always end back here
D E
thinking about how my life could've been
A
if it weren't for the whiskey and beer
D
no eulogy writing on the tomb stone, besides
E A
my grave's just the bottle i finished last night
D E
now the sun's coming up but I don't give a fuck
A
cause i feel like my life's at an end
A D
Now I've drank all there is to be drunk around here
E A
I've pissed away everything that I held dear
D E
Now I’m getting drunk on my own bitter tears
A
God damn that Whisky and Beer
F#m G#m
The first shot rang out after sundown
C#m A
The second shot hit me right here
F#m
And I swear to this day
G#m
I wouldn’t be that way
C#m A
If it weren’t for the whiskey and beer
Now I’ve drank all there is to be drunk around here
I’ve pissed away everything that I held dear
Now I’m getting drunk on my own bitter tears
God damn that Whisky and Beer
repeat chorus...
