D

Memories and drinks don't mix too well

D G E7

And jukebox records don't play those wedding bells

A

Lookin' at the world through the bottom of a glass

A D A

All I see is a man who's fading fast

D

Tonight I need that woman again

D G E7

What I'd give for my baby to just walk in

A

Sit down beside me and say it's alright

A D A7

Take me home and make sweet love to me tonight

Chorus:

D F#7 G E7

But here I am again, mixin' misery and gin

G A D

Sittin' with all my friends and talkin' to myself

G F#7 Bm Bm/A G

I look like I'm havin' a good time but any fo-o-o-o-l can tell

D G A D A

That this honky tonk Heaven really makes you f-e-e-l like hell

D

I light a lonely womans cigarette

D G E7

And we start talkin' 'bout what we want to forget

A

Her life story and mine are the same

A D A7

We both lost someone and only have ourselves to blame

Chorus
