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

	Chorus 1:
	             D                     G           A
	He put that bottle to his head and pulled the trigger
             Bm                    A    G
	And finally drank away her memory
        D                                   A
	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
	They found him with his face down in the pillow
               Bm                           A      G
	With a note that said I’ll love her till I die
            D                              A
	And when we buried him beneath the willow
	    G                     Bm
	The angels 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:
            D                G                               Bm
	The rumors flew but nobody knew how much she blamed herself
	    A         D         G                                 A
	For years and years she tried to hide the whiskey on her breath
	    Bm                     A    D
	She finally drank her pain away a little at a time
		Bm                     A     D             
	But she never could get drunk enough to get him off her mind
	          A
	Until the night…

	Chorus 2:
		     D                      G          A
	She put that bottle to her head and pulled the trigger
	    Bm                     A   G
	And finally drank away his memory
         D       			   A
	Life is short but this time it was bigger
                 Bm                         A       G
	Than the strength she has to get up off her knees
            D				        A
	We found her with her face down in the pillow
	 Bm                     A         D
	Clinging to his picture for dear life
	   D                                 A
	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
	(repeat until fade)
