Chords
[Intro]
Bm
[Verse 1]
G She put him outD like the Gburnin' end of a midnight cigarette Bm
She Abroke his heartD he Gspent his whole life tryin' to forget A
[Pre-Chorus]
We Bmwatched him drink his pain awayA/C# a Dlittle at a time
But he Bmnever could get drunk enoughA/C# to Dget her off his mind
UntilA the night
[Chorus]
He put that botDtle to his head and pulled the Atrigger
And Bmfinally drank away her memory G
DLife is short but this time it was Abigger
Than the Bmstrength he had to get up off his knees G
We Dfound him with his face down in the Apillow
With a Bmnote that said "I'll love her 'til I die" G
And Dwhen we buried him beneath the Awillow
The Gangels sang a whiskey lullaby Bm
[Interlude]

[Verse 2]
The rumors flew,D but noGbody knew how much she blamed herselfBm For years A/C#
and yearsD she Gtried to hide the whiskey on her breath A
[Pre-Chorus]
She Bmfinally drank her pain awayA/C# a Dlittle at a time
But she Bmnever could get drunk enoughA/C# to Dget him off her mind
UntilA the night
[Chorus]
She put that Dbottle to her head and pulled the Atrigger
And Bmfinally drank away his meAmory G
DLife is short but this time it was Abigger
Than the Bmstrength she had to get up off her knees G
We Dfound her with her face down in the Apillow
BmClinging to his picture for dear Glife
We Dlaid her next to him beneath the Awillow
While the Gangels sang a whiskey lullaby Bm
