G5                             C5              G5
There was a time when I could drink my cares away
                                  Ab5  A5                    D5
And drown out all of the heartaches   that hurt me night & day
          G5                                  C5             G5
When the thought of you came crashin' through I'd have one more
                           D5         G5
But now the whiskey ain't workin' anymore

       C5                            G5
I need one good honky tonk angel to turn my life around
                         E5         A5               D5
That's reason enough for me to lay this old bottle down
  G5                       C5                G5
A woman warm & willing is what I'm looking for
                           D5        G5
'Cause the whiskey ain't workin anymore


break ......   C5    G5   D5   G5


                     C5            G5
They knew my name at every bar in town
                               Ab5  A5                 D5
And they knew all of the reasons   why I was comming round

round round    (sing it Travis)
       G5          C5              G5                    C5
'Cause in my mind peace I'd find when they'd start to pour
             G5             D5            G5
But now the whiskey ain't workinm' anymore   (sing it Slim )

       C5                            G5
I need one good honky tonk angel to turn my life around
                         E5         A5                D5
That's reason enough for me to lay this ol' bottle down
        G5                               C5                 G5
Well a woman warm & willing Lord that's what I'm lookin' for
                          D5          G5
'Cause the whiskey ain't workin' anymore
C5        G5              D5          G5
Lord the whiskey ain't workin' anymore

That's for sure!
