Intro: 
G D C9 
 
G                                        D                      C9 
She  said she was gonna leave, she finally did today 
G                              D             C9 
I drove up just in time, to watch her drive away 
G                                            D         C9 
And as I read the note she left, it cut me right to the bone 
G                                                   D                            C9                    D          G 
Was a story of a woman who needed more than a man who was always gone 
 

G                                        D                C9 
She said Lord knows I've tried, I've done the best I can 
G                                            D           C9 
But I've learned it's just to hard, loving a music man 
G                             D               C9 
I pretend I understand, but time keeps passing by 
G                                            D                                   C9           D           G 
And while you're out there chasing your dreams, I'm here living a lie 
 

G                        D                        C9 
Whiskey on the rocks is what I need 
G                     D                       C9 
Set em' up bartender, gonna drink till I can't see 
G                                             D                        C9 
Watch the whiskey in the glass turn to water 
C9                   D (one strum ) 
It gets weaker, but I get stronger  
 
 
G                               D                   C9 
As I sit here in this bar, where everyone knows my name 
G                                           D              C9                     
They all think I hit the big time, I'm headed for fortune and fame 
G                                     D                  C9 
But I'm still not on the jukebox, my pictures arent on the wall 
G                                D                         C9           D             G 
I know I'm headed somewhere, I just hope it's not for a fall 
 
Chorus 
 
Bridge: 
C9                                                         G 
Everytime I think Im on my way up, someting knocks me back to the ground 
C9                                                               Am walk dowN.C.             D 
Then I find the strength to get back up, I can't let this ol' guitar down
