Misery and Gin

Written by John Durrill/Tommy "Snuff" Garrett

	  		Verse 1:  

F  
Memories and drinks don't mix too well.  
                                             Bb     G7  
And jukebox records don't play those wedding bells.  
C/G  
Starin' at the world through the bottom of a glass,  
                                F     C C/B C/Bb C/E  
All I see is a man who's fading fast.  

Verse 2: 
  
F  
Tonight I need that woman again.  
                                       Bb  G7  
What I'd give for my baby to just walk in.  
C/G  
Sit down beside me and say it's alright.  
                                       F      C C/B  C/Bb C/E  
Take me home and make sweet love to me tonight.

F Cm Bb G But here I am again, mixin' misery and gin. C C7 F Sittin' with all my friends and talkin' to myself. Bb A Dm Dm/C Dm/B G7 I look like I'm havin' a good time but any fool can tell, F Bb C F C C/B C/Bb C/E That this Honkytonk Heaven really makes ya' feel like hell.

Verse 3: F I light a lonely womans cigarette, Bb G7 We both start talkin' 'bout what we want to forget. C Her life story and mine are the same. F C C/B C/Bb C/E We both lost someone and only have ourselves to blame. Chorus
