C                                                                     
Now broken hearted people always seem to drink and 
Em                                                 F      G        C
tryin' to drown those sorrows ain't as easy as you think
      C                                                       
But living with a liar is a hard old way to go 
 Em                                                 F                    G 
Laughin' just to keep from crying ain't no way to grow old
 
Chorus
     F                  C                   F                C  
So take me to a barroom driver set me on a stool
   F                 C     C/B    Am    F    G       C
If I can't be her man I'm damned if I'll be her fool

                    C     
They say that whiskey ain't the best way, but then I ain't too smart 
    Em                                      F    G          C
to think I just found out she was lyin' from the start
                 C                                                         
So if this is nothing but a bad joke lookin' for a laugh 
Em                                                           F                G
hold on to your lampshade darlin' cause I'm looking for a hat

             Chorus
     C                                                                            
So get this taxi movin' cause I got no time to lose 
           Em                            F         G        C
there's no time to be choosy, any old bar will do
               C                                                                       
cause I'm lookin' to get silly and I'm lookin' to get loose 
         Em                                                 F              G        
and if that don't get it done darlin', I'll come looking for you

               Chorus
