Capo 2

E

The bars are all closed

A E

It’s four in the morning

E

Must have shut ’em all down

E B

By the shape that I’m in

E

I lay my head on the wheel

A E

And the horn begins honking

E

The whole neighborhood knows

B E

That I’m home drunk again

Chorus:

A E

And if drinking don’t kill me

B

Her memory will

B A B

I can’t hold out much longer

E

The way that I feel

A E

With the blood from my body

A

I could start my own still

A E

But if drinking don’t kill me

B E

Her memory will

These will old bones they move slow

But so sure of their footsteps

As I trip on the floor and lightly touch down

Lord it’s been ten bottles since I tried to forget her

But the memory still lingers lying here on the ground

Chorus
