Whiskey Lullaby

Accordi Whiskey Lullaby

Intro:
SIm        SOL

            RE            SOL
She put him out, like the burnin' end 
                   SIm
of a midnight cigarette
    LA/DO#    RE
She broke his heart, 
   SOL                               LA
he spent his whole life tryin' to forget
   SIm                         LA/DO#
We watched him drink his pain away 
  RE
a little at a time
       SIm                    LA/DO#   
But he never could get drunk enough 
   RE              
to get her off his mind
     LA
Until the night

            RE        
He put that bottle to his head 
               LA
and pulled the trigger
    SIm                        SOL
And finally drank away her memory
RE                                  LA    
Life is short, but this time it was bigger
         SIm                               SOL
Than the strength he had to get up off his knees
   RE                                  LA
We found him with his face down in the pillow
       SIm                             LA    SOL     
With a note that said, "I'll love her 'til I die"
    RE                             LA
And when we buried him beneath the willow
    SOL                        SIm
The angels sang a whiskey lullaby
                  SOL         
 La, la, la...
SIm               SOL         
 La, la, la...

           RE          SOL
The rumors flew, but nobody knew 
                       SIm
how much she blamed herself
    LA/DO#    RE        SOL
For years and years she tried to hide 
                   LA
the whiskey on her breath
    SIm                     LA/DO# RE
She finally drank her pain away  a little at a time
        SIm                    LA/DO#
But she never could get drunk enough 
   RE
to get him off her mind
    LA
Until the night

             RE
She put that bottle to her head 
               LA
and pulled the trigger
    SIm                        SOL
And finally drank away his memory
RE                                  LA
Life is short, but this time it was bigger
         SIm                                SOL
Than the strength she had to get up off her knees
   RE                                  LA
We found her with her face down in the pillow
SIm                     LA       SOL
Clinging to his picture for dear life
   RE                               LA
We laid her next to him beneath the willow
          SOL                        SIm
While the angels sang a whiskey lullaby
                  SOL        SIm         SOL         
 La, la, la...
SIm               SOL        SIm         SOL        
 La, la, la...
SIm               SOL               
 La, la, la...
SIm               SOL               
 La, la, la...
