Capo 3
Intro: D G Bm A
Verse 1:
D
I can't stand the smell of smoke
G D
But I bought myself a pack
Bm
Borowed a light from a stranger
G
Nearly choked on that first drag
D
And I hate the taste of whiskey
G D
And this barroom ain't my style
Bm A G
But I'll try anything not to hurt for a while.
Verse 2:
D
Seems like forever since I looked
G D
Into the eyes of another man
Bm G
In my lifetime I've never known a one night stand
D G D
Lord knows it's wrong to let a stranger turn out your bedroom light
Bm A G
But I'll try anything not to hurt for awhile
Chorus:
D G
I'm tired, so tired of cryin'
Bm A
Tired of reachin' for a memory in the middle of the night
G D
So sick of pain runnin' through my veins
G
Overtakin' my whole life
Bm A G
I'll try anything not to hurt for a while.
D A D G
I'll try anything not to hurt for a while
Verse 2:
D
It ain't like me to be a cussin'
G D
Gettin tore up in this bar
Bm
Guess a good ole girl can backslap
G
runin' from a broken heart
D
I pray the good lord ain't a lookin
G D
takin' notes on me tonight
Bm A G
'Cause I'll try anything not to hurt for a while
Chorus x2
Outro: D G Bm A G D
