she put him out, like a burnin' end of a midnight cigerette. 
                         C                               D
she broke his heart. he spend his whole life tryin' to forget.
      C                                  G 
we watched him drink his pain away, a little at a time. 
        C                               G

until the night

Chorus:
              G                                   D
He put that bottle to his head, and pulled the trigger.
       E                     C
and finally drank away her memory.
  G                                  D
life is short but this time it was bigger.
             E                               C
than the strength he had to get up off his knees.
     G                                   D
we found him with his face down in the pillow.
        E                                    D
with a note that said "Ill love her 'till i die"
      G                                D    
and when we burried him beneath the willow.
      C                       E
the angels sang a whiskey lullaby.
 E                                      C   (short pause before next verse)
