Capo 1st fret
 
[Intro]
Em7 G C
(If I stop drinkin')
D
(Said goodbye)
 
[Verse 1]
Em7
Slide that bottle down to me
G
I need me some of that Tennesee
C D
Here's to her not next to me, pour up another round
Em7
Make it strong, man, make it burn
G
I forget how bad it hurts
C D
I'll take hungover over her memory hangin' 'round
 
[Pre-Chorus]
Em7 G C
If I don't take a sip, I'm right back on your lips
D
I should quit, the only problem is
 
[Chorus]
Em7 G
If I stop drinkin', baby, I'll start thinkin' maybe
C D
I'll hit you up, say, "What's up?" like you never said goodbye
Em7 G
Leanin' on the bourbon is the only thing that's workin'
C D
Without it, I'd be missin' you, wishin' that you'd change your mind
Em7
Yeah, 'cause over me ain't over you
G
I'm knockin' back this hundred-proof
C D
I'm in a mess, scared to death of missin' you
Em7
If I stop drinkin'

(If I stop drinkin')
D
(Goodbye)

Em7
I don't wanna go down memory lane
G
That's a two-lane road right to the pain
C D
Can still see you like yesterday down on 30A
 
[Pre-Chorus]
Em7 G
The sunset on your suntan, I can see it in the mirror of your Ray-Bans
C D
This double shot's all I got, I don't stand a chance
 
[Chorus]
Em7 G
If I stop drinkin', baby, I'll start thinkin' maybe
C D
I'll hit you up, say, "What's up?" like you never said goodbye

Leanin' on the bourbon is the only thing that's workin'
C D
Without it, I'd be missin' you, wishin' that you'd change your mind

I'm knockin' back this hundred-proof

I'm in a mess, scared to death of missin' you

If I stop drinkin'
