[Intro]
Gm   D#


[Verse]
            A#            D#
She put him out like the burning end
                  Gm
of a midnight cigarette
    F         A#
She broke his heart
    D#                                F
he spent his whole life trying to forget
   Gm                          F
We watched him drink his pain away
  A#
a little at a time
       Gm                     F
But he never could get drunk enough
   A#
to get her off his mind
        F
Until tonight


[Chorus]
            A#
He put that bottle to his head
    D#          F
and pulled the trigger
    Gm                     F   D#
And finally drank away her memory
A#                                  F
Life is short but this time it was bigger
          Gm                       F       D#
Than the strength he had to get up off his knees
     A#                                   F
They found him with his face down in the pillow
       Gm                           F     D#
With a note that said I'll love her til I die
    A#                              F
And when we buried him beneath the willow
    D#                           Gm
The angel's sang a whiskey lullaby
Gm                                      D#
La la la la la la la, la la la la la la la
Gm                                      D#
La la la la la la la, la la la la la la la


[Verse]
           A#          D#
The rumors flew but nobody knew
                       Gm
how much she blamed herself
    F         A#         D#
For years and years she tried
                           F
to hide the whiskey on her breath
    Gm                      F
She finally drank her pain away
  A#
a little at a time
        Gm                     F
But she never could get drunk enough
   A#
to get him off her mind
          F
Until the night


[Chorus]
             A#
She put that bottle to her head
    D#          F
and pulled the trigger
    Gm                     F   D#
And finally drank away his memory
A#                                  F
Life is short but this time it was bigger
          Gm                        F       D#
Than the strength she had to get up off her knees
   A#                                   F
We found her with her face down in the pillow
Gm                      F        D#
Clinging to his picture for dear life
   A#                                F
We laid her next to him beneath the willow
      D#                           Gm
While angel's sang a whiskey lullaby
Gm                                      D#   Gm  D#
La la la la la la la, la la la la la la la
Gm                                      D#   Gm  D#
La la la la la la la, la la la la la la la
Gm~                                     D#~  \
La la la la la la la, la la la la la la la

La la la la la la la, la la la la la la la
