Capo 3rd fret

Standard (EADGBE)

I been down on my luck

Been down, too long this time,

I’ve drank onto the bottom

Till I found myself there too

And the taste of defeat, has never been so sweet

So I pour another glass and fail again. And again.

I’ve been down, and I’ve been higher than six towers

I’ve asked the higher powers if they could just spare a drink

Did they answer my cries? I was a bit preoccupied.

I’ve toasted them, boasted to them, that they had met their match

But as long as there is whiskey in the world

We can drink away the hearth ache

And drink away the girls

But we fall in love, but we never touch

As long as there is whiskey in the world.

I have loved, and I’ve lost all that they gave me

They all try and save me

But I’m seeing this thing through

And these feelings of remorse

They leave me no recourse

So I poured another glass, fail again and again

But as long as there is whiskey in the world

We can drink away the hearth ache

And drink away the girls

But we fall in love, but we never touch

As long as there is whiskey in the world.

I don’t want to be saved

Instrumental

Ah, , Ah, Ah, Ah

..

as long as there is whiskey in the world

As long as there is whiskey in the world.

as there is whiskey

as there is whiskey

as there is whiskey in the world
