The Whiskey Song
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
This guitar sure sounds sweeter when you're drinking that old whiskey
And it ain't been out of tune in a long, long while
And from the looks you're giving me I can tell you're getting frisky
And you know what it takes to make me smile
And I ain't much on old love songs
Hurting songs and drinking's more my style
And I never say forever 'cause forever's just too damn long
But I could hang with you for a while
(same chord progression in the next verse and chorus)
When I was a young man I came across some money
Through it all away on a long shot bet
But now I'm working steady, and since I met you, Honey
There's few things in life that I regret
And I ain't much on old love songs
Hurting songs and drinking's more my style
And I never say forever 'cause forever's just too damn long
But I could hang with you for a while
Manders himself told me these were the chords.
Have fun.
