Straight Tequila

	  		 
"Straight Tequila" 
    D   
I'm down and out on the border 
          A 
She's in love up in Dallas 
 D                            G 
She say's it's over I'm still thinkin' about us 
    D                                          A 
Well I'm on the run with a heartache hot on my heels 
   D                             A 
So I'm stirring up feelings like booze in a blender 
     D                    G 
And pouring my heart out to the bartender 
     D                      A                 D/A 
Held up on the border while she holds another tonight... 
 
(Chorus) 
                 D                     A  
And I'm pouring straight tequila over mixed emotions 
  D                    G  
Drowning my sorrow by cryin' an ocean 
                                      A  
Should I stoop to beg or just let her go 
         D                      A           
I'm in a sea of confusion and I can't swim 
     D                          G 
One minute I'm fumin' then I'm crying again 
         D                     A              D 
Pouring straight tequila over mixed emotions tonight! 
 
   D                A  
A shaker of salt, a quarter of lime 
         D                     G  
Turning three finger shooters a' one at a time 
                                         A  
Chased by a memory tonight that I can't escape 
            D                 A  
I'm down to my last buck and my last swallow 
     D                         G  
And just my luck Hey there's a worm in my bottle 
         D                A                     D/A  
But it's my last shot so here's to love on the rocks... 
 
(repeat Chorus) 
 
    G             D  
And I'm pouring straight tequila 
      A              D 
over mixed emotions tonight!!!
