Whiskey, whiskey
The singer’s getting sore
We raised the roof
Now we’re lowering the floor
The band is blistered but we’ve got a little bit more
When I say 1,2 you say 3,4
1,2,3,4
C, D, C, D
G
Altogether
C G
Altogether gone
G D
It’s now or never if you want
G
another song
G C G
On and on goes the ringing of the bell
G D G
Off we go, this song won’t sing itself
C D
So soldiers at my side
C D
It’s you and me tonight
Chorus
G
Whiskey, whiskey
C G
The singer’s getting sore
G
We raised the roof
D G
Now we’re lowering the floor
G
The band is blistered but we’ve got
G
a little bit more
(No chords)
When I say 1,2 you say 3,4

Verse
G
Mister moonlight
C G
You gotta let ‘em play
G D
If the devils wanna dance
G
Then the piper wants his pay
G
Hide me in a hiding place
C G
Where good sense never goes
G
Take me to the fountain
D G
Where the firewater flows
C D
Find our alibies and lies
C D
And lose ourselves tonight
Chorus
G
Whiskey, whiskey
C G
The singer’s getting sore
G
We raised the roof
D G
Now we’re lowering the floor
G C
The band is blistered but we’ve got
G
a little bit more

Solo
C D C G x2
Spoken:
G C
Trying to get the whole room on the
dance floor
G
Is like trying to put a square peg
C
in a round hole
G
I’m not saying it ain’t something
C
that we shouldn’t try to do
G C
Don’t do it for me though, do it for you
G
You’ve been minding your manners
C
and behaving yourself
G
But there’s still a lot of bottles
C
left upon the shelf
G
So wet my little whistle now and
C
give a dog a bone
G C
I can take it up a notch, can’t do it alone
C D
So soldiers at my side
C D
It’s you and me tonight
Chorus
G
Whiskey, whiskey
C G
The singer’s getting sore
G
We raised the roof
D G
Now we’re lowering the floor
G C
The band is blistered but we’ve got
G
a little bit more
