Intro: Bm   G

            D             G                             Bm
She put him out like the burning end of a midnight cigarette
     A         D        G                                 A
She broke his heart he spent his whole life trying to forget
    Bm                          A  D
We watched him drink his pain away a little at a time
       Bm                       A   D
But he never could get drunk enough to get her off his mind
         A
Until tonight...


             D                      G          A
He put that bottle to his head and pulled the trigger
     Bm                     A   G
And finally drank away her memory
D                                   A
Life is short but this time it was bigger
          Bm                        A        G
Than the strength he had to get up off his knees
      D                                    A
They found him with his face down in the pillow
        Bm                           A     G 
With a note that said I'll love her til I die
      D                             A
And when we buried him beneath the willow
     G                          Bm
The angel's sang a whiskey lullaby
Bm                                       G
La la la la la la la,  La la la la la la la 
Bm                                       G
La la la la la la la,  La la la la la la la 


            D          G                               Bm
The rumors flew but nobody knew how much she blamed herself
     A         D         G                                 A
For years and years she tried to hide the whiskey on her breath
    Bm                       A  D
She finally drank her pain away a little at a time
         Bm                       A  D
But she never could get drunk enough to get him off her mind
           A
Until the night...


              D                      G          A
She put that bottle to her head and pulled the trigger
     Bm                     A   G
And finally drank away his memory
D                                   A
Life is short but this time it was bigger
          Bm                         A        G
Than the strength she had to get up off her knees
     D                                     A
We found her with her face down in the pillow
Bm                       A        G 
Clinging to his picture for dear life
     D                               A
We laid her next to him beneath the willow
       G                          Bm
While angel's sang a whiskey lullaby
Bm                                       G   Bm  G
La la la la la la la,  La la la la la la la
