G 
Well I've done some things 
              Em 
That I can't undo 
              C 
I took your trust 
                 D 
And I tore it in two 
G                                            Em 
No man in his right mind could've said it's over 
          C          D         
Still I, told you goodbye completely sober 
Em            C           D 
Wish I could say I'd been drinkin' 
              Em 
And blame the bottle 
         C                  D 
But I've never been one to booze 
Em        C                D 
Lord only knows what I was thinkin' 
                          C 
Wish I could say I'd been drinkin' 
         D                    G 
But even that's just a fool's excuse 

Well my mom knows 

Her baby boy knows better 

So it's gonna break her heart 

To hear we're not together 

She's always said she cares so much for you 

So what is she gonna say 

About the hell I've put you through 

(Chorus)
Em                              G 
Even Tennessee whiskey couldn't wash away the pain 
C 
Watered down with tear drops 
     D 
Over light Kentucky rain 

(Chorus 2x)
