The Hymn for the Alcohol
guitar chords lyrics
Not sure if the chords are in the exact right place but are more or less. Listen
to the song if your not sure
Verse1:
D Bm
Don't start me on the rum, Just because it makes me numb.
G Em
Start me on the whiskey I know whiskey is his drink.
A7 G
You never drank it with me but now you drink it with him,
G D
I'm not good enough for whiskey, not good enough for you.
Verse2:
D Bm
Let's start drinking wine, we used to all the time.
G Em
It used to go to our heads but then you went to his bed.
A7 G
If the wine stains you lips red then tonight you might forget,
G D
You might not go home to him you might stay here with me.
Chorus:
G D F
It is just wishful thinking that all this hard drinking might lure you back
to my ramshackle stable,
Em D C
There's no point in trying, the debutante was lying when she said that she
D
did something that your lips could never do.
A7 G A7 G
And if you know what's true then you know I love you.
Verse3: same as other verses
Its six months since you left, you must be truly blessed,
Cause you look no less pretty, in fact you may be more so,
If you reap the seeds that you sow, Oh we both know you are going straight to
Hell
