Introduction: G C9 Cm G Am7 G/B
C9 G/B
I'm pushing you away each time I pull up that old bar stool
Am7 D G
Drownin' you in every drop I drink
C9 G/B
Telling you to go to hell but I'm talking to myself
Am7 D D4 D
Cause you're not around to hear what I think.
C9 G/B
Trying to teach my heart to hate you but it aint working right
G Am7 Am7M G
Now the truth is I'm only drinkin' me lonely tonight
C9 G/B
Lord it's more than just thirsty that I'm feeling inside
Am7 D G
Cause these tears I've been cryin' have left me bone dry
C9 G/B Em A7
I wish the bartender had a cure I could buy
G Am7 Am7M G
But the truth is I'm only drinkin me lonely tonight
C9 G/B
You said I'd have to choose between your love and this old bar room
Am7 D G
I just laughed but I guess you knew best
C9 G/B
Who cares who's right or wrong tonight my better half is gone
Am7 D D4 D
And this whiskey's layin' claim to all that's left
C9 G/B
So I'll just order up another and pretend I'm alright
G Am7 Am7M G
When the truth is I'm only drinkin' me lonely tonight
REPEAT Chorus
C9 G/B
So I'll just order up another and pretend I'm alright
G Am7 C9 G Cm G
When the truth is I'm only drinkin' me lonely tonight
