Burnout is the sister song to be like the B-side to Drinking Problem.
It's been around just as long as Drinking Problem.
And it's been in our catalog live for a long time.
We love to play it and it's a special song to us.
It's a great song, I think.
It almost explains like how the archetype in Drinking Problem got to that place.
You know, it gives you, it kind of sets that song up a little bit.
[A#] We're [C#] driving to get [G] to that low, you know.
That's a real tip of the hat to George Strait, too, I think.
Dean Dillon, [F#] [Bm] that kind of writing back then.
[B] And Gary [G] Stewart.
A lot of Gary.
Watching cigarettes burn out
Till all the neon [Em] gets turned [G] out
Oh, so how about the [Am] heater tile
[C] [D] That's the cigarette [G] you burn out
[C] So watching rivers [Em] run down [Bm] the sidewalk
And [Am] almost like it's crying [G] my tears
They have [C] the world on a string
They're [Bm] not on everything
[Am] That's how I wonder, [D] please
Watching cigarettes [G]
burn out
Till all the neon [Em] gets turned out
And the left [Am]-handed glasses now
The [C] head's on flashes now
[D]
Smoking memory [G] now
They're down in [D] the pastures [G] and the snow lies
You've got me wrong, don't you, [Em] Miss O'Reilly
So how about the [Am] heater tile
[C] [D] That's the cigarette [G] you burn out
[C] Put your hands in the flame
[Em] You [Bm] got no right to complain
[Am] Cause it's always gonna leave [G] a mark
[A] [Bm] [C] Rippling glow comes to your neck
Like [Bm] scattered embers in the wind
[Am] Leaves you looking for a brand new [D] spark
Watching cigarettes [G]
burn out
[Em]
[Am]
[D] I won't ever [C] regret
I'm gonna [Bm] quit
But who am [Am] I kidding?
I just [G] can't put you down
Cause I keep hanging [C#]
around
[G] Watching cigarettes burn out
Till all the neon [E] gets turned out
There's nothing left but [Am] helping [A] glasses now
[C] The head's on flashes now
[D]
Smoking memory [G] now
They're down in the pastures and the snow lies
You've got me wrong, [Em] don't you, Miss O'Reilly
So how about the [Am]
heater tile
[C] [D] That's the cigarette [G] you burn out
[Em] So how about the [Am] heater tile
[C] [D] That's the cigarette [G] you burn out
Ooh
