G, G/B, Em, D, Dsus4/F#, Cadd9, Am
[Verse 1]
G Dsus4/F# Em D
I can tell he’s been with you on nights like this
Cadd9 G/B Am D
And when you come on strong, he just can’t resist
G Dsus4/F# Em D
You don’t know all the hell you’ve put me through
Cadd9 G/B Am D
And he can’t let me go, when he’s holding you
[Chorus]
G/B Cadd9
Hey whiskey, why you gotta make him miss me
G
Why’s he only call me up when he throws you down
Wanting me more with every round
G/B Cadd9
Hey bourbon, why you gotta leave him burning
Em Dsus4/F# Cadd9
And feeling that old flame he used to have when he was with me
G Dsus4/F# Em D Cadd9
Hey whiskey
[Verse 2]
G Dsus4/F# Em D
I’m only on his mind when you go to his head
Cadd9 G/B Am D
And he starts pouring out, all the words he never said
G Dsus4/F# Em D
How can either one of us start moving on
Cadd9 G/B Am D
When every night he spends with you reminds him that I’m gone
[Chorus]
G/B Cadd9
Hey whiskey, why you gotta make him miss me
G
Why’s he only call me up when he throws you down
Wanting me more with every round
Cadd9
Hey bourbon, why you gotta leave him burning
Em Dsus4/F# Cadd9
And feeling that old flame he used to have when he was with me
G/B Cadd9 G Dsus4/F#
Hey whiskey
[Bridge]
Em D Am
Why am I the one that ends up feeling empty
[Chorus]
Cadd9
Hey whiskey, why you gotta make him miss me
G
Why’s he only call me up when he throws you down
Wanting me more with every round
G/B Cadd9
Hey bourbon, why you gotta leave him burning
Em Dsus4/F# Cadd9
And feeling that old flame he used to have when he was with me
G Dsus4/F# Em D Cadd9 G
Hey whiskey
