Whisky Lullaby Lyrics & Tabs by Country Dance Kings
Whisky Lullaby
guitar chords lyrics
She put him out
Like the burning end of a midnight cigarette
She broke his heart
He spent his whole life trying to forget
We watched him drink his pain away
A little at the time
But he could never get drunk enough to get her off his mind
Until the night
He put that bottle to his head and pulled the trigger
He finally drank away her memory
Life is short but this time it was bigger
Than the strenght he had to get up off his knees
We found him with his face down in a pillow
With a note that said: "I'll love her till I die"
When we buried him beneath the willow
We found him with his face down in a pillow
With a note that said: "I'll love her till I die"
When we buried him beneath the willow
The angels sang a whiskey lullaby
la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
la-la-la-la-la-la-la
The rumors flew
But nobody knew how much she blamed herself
For years and years
She tried to hide the whiskey on her breath
She finally drank her pain away a little at the time
But she never could get drunk enough to get himm off her mind
Until the night
She put that bottle to her head and pulled the trigger
And finally drank away his memory
Life is short but this time it was bigger
Than the strenght she had to get up off her kness
We found her with her face down in the pillow
Clainging to his picture for dear life
We laid her next to him beneath the willow
While the angels sang a whiskey lullaby
la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
la-la-la-la-la-la
la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
End
