AWOSME SONG TOOk a Long time to figure out strumming G C G She put him out like the burnin' end of a midnight cigarette G C D She broke his heart he spent his whole life tryin' to forget C G We watched him drink his pain away a little at a time C G But he never could get drunk enough to get her off his mind D Until the night 1st Chorus G D He put that bottle to his head and pulled the trigger Em C And finally drank away her memory G D Life is short but this time it was bigger Em C Than the strength he had to get up off his knees G D We found him with his face down in the pillow Em D With a note that said I'll love her till I die G D And when we buried him beneath the willow C Em The angels sang a whiskey lullaby Em C la la la la la la la lalalalala G C G The rumors flew but nobody knew how much she blamed herself G C D For years and years she tried to hide the whiskey on her breath C G She finally drank her pain away a little at a time C G But she never could get drunk enough to get him off her mind D Until the night 2nd Chorus G D She put that bottle to her head and pulled the trigger Em C And finally drank away his memory G D Life is short but this time it was bigger Em C Than the strength she had to get up off her knees G D We found her with her face down in the pillow Em D Clinging to his picture for dear life G D We laid her next to him beneath the willow C Em While the angels sang a whiskey lullaby Em C la la la la la la la lalalalala
