Verse 1 (Brad):
            Ds(Fill 1)     G                         Bm
She put him out like the burning end of a midnight cigarette
      A        Ds(Fill 1)G                              A        
She broke his heart he spent his whole life trying to forget
     Bm                         A  Ds(Fill 1)
We watched him drink his pain away a little at a time
        Bm                     A    Ds(Fill 1)
But he never could get drunk enough to get her off his mind
            A(Fill 2)
Until the night...

Chorus 1 (Brad&Allison):
              D                      G           A(Fill 2)
He put that bottle to his head and pulled the trigger
      Bm                    A   G
And finally drank away her memory
D                                    A(Fill 2)
Life is short but this time it was bigger 
            Bm                      A       G
Than the strength he had to get up off his knees
       D                              A(Fill 2)
They found him with his face in the pillow
        Bm                           A      G
With a note that said I'll love her till I die
     D                               A(Fill 2)
And when we buried him beneath the willow
       G                     Bm
The angel's sang a whiskey lullaby
Bm                                      G
La La La La La La La, La La La La La La La
Bm                                      G
La La La La La La La, La La La La La La La

Verse 2 (Allison):
            Ds(Fill 1)G                               Bm
The rumors flew but nobody knew how much she blamed herself
      A         Ds(Fill 1)G                                A
For years and years she tried to hide the whiskey on her breath
      Bm                    A   Ds(Fill 1)
She finally drank her pain away a little at a time
         Bm                     A    Ds(Fill 1)
But she never could get drunk enough to get him off her mind
            A(Fill 2)
Until the night...

Chorus 2 (Brad&Allison):
               D                      G           A(Fill 2)
She put that bottle to her head and pulled the trigger
      Bm                   A   G
And finally drank away his memory
D                                    A(Fill 2)
Life is short but this time it was bigger
            Bm                       A        G
Than the strength she had to get up off her knees
     D                                   A(Fill 2)
We found her with her face down in the pillow
Bm                       A        G
Clinging to his picture for dear life
     D                                A(Fill 2)
We laid her next to him beneath the willow
            G                      Bm
While the angel's sang a whiskey lullaby
Bm                                      G
La La La La La La La, La La La La La La La       (4 X S)
