[Verse 1]
C G
I'll give up the whisky rye' if she come's back home' with that

smile on her beautful face

But the last word's she said' she aint never coming' back' to this

desolate sad old place
Am C
but she left this empty space' in my heart' when she
Am
found a better place to go
C G
Now i'm sat all alone in my old rocking chair' in' a sad old place

that i know
[Verse 2]

One cold and lonely night' I got in my truck' a rusty old four x four

necked half a bottle of whisky rye' put the pedal down to the floor

at the break of dawn' i ran a red light' south east of Baltimore
C
Then the sheriff found the' bottle' half full of rye'
G C Am C G C
stashed away in' the driver's door
[Verse 3]
C G
They locked me up inside' stripped naked of my pride' got a bucket' and

a rusty mug'

and throw away the whisky jug.

her beautiful face

G C Am C G C
desolate sad old place
