If drinking don't kill me
The bars are all closed
F C
It’s four in the morning
Must have shut ’em all down
G7
By the shape that I’m in
C
I lay my head on the wheel
F C
And the horn begins honking
The whole neighborhood knows
G7 C
That I’m home drunk again
F C
And if drinking don’t k-ill me
G7
Her memory will
F G7
I can’t hold out much long-er
C
The way that I feel
F C
With the blood from my bo-dy
F
I could start my own still
C
And if drinking don’t kill me
G7 C
Her memory will
These will old bones they move slow
F C
But so sure of their footsteps
As I trip on the floor
G7
And I lightly touch down
C
Lord it’s been ten bottles
F C
Since I tried to forget her
But the memory still lingers
G7 C
Lying here on the ground
