Cheap Whiskey

	  		
Intro: D  A  D   Cadd9   G/B   A   D 


Verse 

D                        Bm 
He sits all alone in his easy chair 
        D           A7         D 
Staring back on his lost yesterdays 
     D                         Bm 
Long before he encountered the bottle 
        D           A7        D 
And the demons that drove her away 


Verse 

       D                      Bm 
In his hand he is holding her photograph 
    D         A7               D 
Her image all tear-stained and worn 
D                      Bm 
Tonight he's embracing reality 
       D          A7         D 
And he curses the day he was born 

 
        G                         D 
And the darkness still echoes her warning 
    G              D             Bm 
You can't have two loves in your life 
        D 
Now the things that will haunt him 
          D   Em   D/F#  G    D   G 
Until the day that he    dies 
       D 
Is the smell of cheap whiskey 
        A7           D 
And the sound of goodbye

Verse 
          D                            Bm 
Since the hour that she left he's been sober 
         D              A7              D 
And each breath that he draws makes him think 
          D                      Bm 
About the light of his life gone forever 
        D          A7         D 
When he traded her love for a drink 

 
        G                         D 
And the darkness still echoes her warning 
    G              D             Bm 
You can't have two loves in your life 
        D 
Now the things that will haunt him 
          D   Em   D/F#  G    D  G 
Until the day that he    dies 
       D 
Is the smell of cheap whiskey 
        A7           Bm  A/C#  G 
And the sound of goodbye 
    D 
The smell of cheap whiskey 
        A7           N.C. 
And the sound of goodbye
