I:
G B7
Last night we had a date, I stayed out late
C G
I bought round after round
A7
And just for you I played the fool
D7
Yes, I was quite the clown
G B7
Words were spoken, hearts were broken
C G
But now I hope you see
G D G
It was the whiskey talkin', not me
II:
G B7
I didn't mean to make a scene
C G
It's really not my style
A7
I raised some Cain and called some names
D7
I guess I got myself a little wild
G B7
If I brag too loud and act too proud
C G
Don't blame old Jerry Lee
G B7 D G
It was the whiskey talkin', not me
Bridge:
B
I had myself a little splash
Em
I said "You no good piece of trash"
A
Shut my mouth all through the night
D
Oh Lord, my bark's bigger than my bite
G B7
If lies were told, if I was bold
C G
Don't take it personally
G D G
It was the whiskey talkin', not me
B
At the bar I bucked and roared
Em
I picked a fight and I got floored
A7
I had a shot, got plumb insane
D7
Took everybody's name in va in
G B7
But all that stuff is just a bluff
C G
I wouldn't hurt a flea
G B7 D G
It was the whiskey talkin', not me
III:
G B7
The old devil makes me do some things
C G
It takes a lot of nerve
A7
How could I sass a girl like you
D
You're more than I deserve
G B7
Don't you get upset and please accept
C G
Old Killer's apology
G B7 D G
It was the whiskey talkin', not me
Bridge:
B
End up with some more moonshine
Em
My mouth was workin' overtime
A7
Just let off a little steam
D7
I ain't the Killer that I seem
G B7
Sometimes I'm strange but I might change
C G
You got my guarantee
G B7 D G
It was the whiskey talkin', not me
G B7 D G
Yes that old whiskey talkin', not me
