[Bm] [G]
[C#] [Em] [A] [G]
She [D] put him out [G] like the burning end of a midnight [Bm] cigarette
She [C#m] [D] broke his heart
[G] He spent his whole life trying [A] to forget
We [Bm] watched him drink his [C#m] pain [D] away a little at a time
[Bm] But he never could get [A] drunk [D] enough to get her off his mind [A] until the night
He [D] put that bottle to his head and [A] pulled the trigger
And [Bm] finally drank away her [G] memory
[D] Life is short, but this time [A] it was bigger
Than [Bm] the strength he had to get up [G] off his knees
[D] Found him with his face down [A] in the pillow
[Bm] With a note that said I'll [A] love her [G] till I die
[D] And when we buried him [A] beneath the willow
The [G] angel sang a whiskey [Bm] lullaby
La-a-la-la-la-la-la
La-a-la-la-la [G]-la-la
La [Bm] -a-la-la-la-la
La-a-la-la-la [G]-la-la
[D] Rumors flew
But [G] nobody knew how she [Bm] blamed herself
[C#] For [D] years and years
[G] She tried to hide the whiskey [A] on her breath
She [Bm] finally drank her [A] pain [D] away, a little at a [G] time
[Bm] But she never could get [A] drunk [D] enough to get him off her mind [A] until [G] the [A] night
She [D] put that bottle to her head and [A] pulled the trigger
[Bm] And [B] finally drank away [Em] his [G] memory
[D] Life is short, but this time [A] it was bigger
Than [Bm] the strength she had to get up [G] off her knees
[D] He found her with her face down [A] in the pillow
[Bm] Clinging to his [A] picture for [G] dear life
[D] Laid her next to him [A] beneath the willow
[G] While the angels sang a whiskey [Bm] lullaby
La la la la la la la la la la la [G] la la la
