Intro: G  C9  Cm  G  Am7 G/B (walkup)

C9                            G/B                     
I'm pushing you away each time I pull up that old bar stool 
Am7              D            G     Gsus G   
Drownin' you in every drop I drink 
C9                             G/B       
Telling you to go to hell but I'm talking to myself 
            Am7                          D  Dsus4 D 
Cause you're not around to hear what I think. 


         C9                              G/B  
Trying to teach my heart to hate you but it aint working right 
         G/Bb              Am7        Am7M      G   Gsus G  Gsus G   
Now the truth is I'm only drinkin' me lonely tonight 
         C9                            G/B          
Lord it's more than just thirsty that I'm feeling inside 
             Am7            D            G       Gsus G          
Cause these tears I've been cryin' have left me bone dry 
  C9                    G/B          Em  A7 
I wish the bartender had a cure I could buy 
         G/Bb              Am7        Am7M      G  Gsus G           
But the truth is I'm only drinkin me lonely tonight  
Cm  G  Am7 G/B (walkup)

  C9                                   G/B  
You said I'd have to choose between your love and this old bar room 
Am7                D                 G   Gsus G   
I just laughed but I guess you knew best 
    C9                                 G/B              
Who cares who's right or wrong tonight my better half is gone 
           Am7                                 D  Dsus4 D 
And this whiskey's layin' claim to all that's left 


             C9                G/B 
So I'll just order up another and pretend I'm alright 
         G/Bb                Am7        Am7M      G  Gsus G Gsus G   
When the truth is I'm only drinkin' me lonely tonight 

REPEAT Chorus 


Cm  G 

             C9                G/B 
So I'll just order up another and pretend I'm alright 
         G/Bb                Am7       (no chord)   C9  G  Cm  G  
When the truth is I'm only drinkin' me lonely tonight
