Capo 1st Fret 

E                  A           E
I used to spend my nights in a barroom
                             B7
Liquor was the only friend I knew
        E               A                E
But you rescued me from reaching for the bottle
                             B7            E
And you brought me back from being too far gone
 
E             A                E
You're as smo-oth as Tennessee whiskey
                              B7
You're as sweet as strawberry wine
          E         E7       A
You're as warm as a glass of brandy
           E              B7           E
And I stay stoned on your love all the time
 
E                    A             E
I looked for love in all the wrong places
                                      B7
Found the bottom of the bottle always dry
         E                        A        E
But when you poured out your love I didn't waste it
                              B7             E
Cause there nothing like your love to get me high
 
E             A                E
You're as smo-oth as Tennessee whiskey
                             B7
You're as sweet as strawberry wine
          E         E7       A
You're as warm as a glass of brandy
           E              B7           E
And I stay stoned on your love all the time
