Whiskey Won't
Chords: C, G, Am
While she was asleep he
picked up that bottle of whiskey.
All he could think about
was how much he'd love to drink it down.
He woke the next morning
and found himself alone.
The house was empty
all except for her note
Chorus:
It said that whiskey won't
keep me from leaving,
and that whiskey won't
unpack these bags.
That whiskey won't
keep me from believing
things are never going to change.
but that whiskey will
make you regret tomorrow
because when it comes to keeping my love
that whiskey won't.
Later that afternoon
the sheriff stopped by with the news
Her car was hit by a drunk driver
and there weren't any survivors.
Tears filled his heavy eyes
as he pick up her note one last time
Cause in his hand he realized
were the last words she ever got to write.
Repeat Chorus:
While she was asleep he
picked that bottle of whiskey
but his heart was overcome with pain
so he poured the whole bottle down the drain.
