[Verse 1]
G Em C
Whiskey nights and jukebox lights and honky-tonkin' friends
D C G
And hangin' out from dusk till dawn and softly slippin' in
G Em C
Lies were told, life took its toll and brought love to its knees
G D G
But it took a lot of drinkin' to get that woman over me
[Chorus]
D C G
She never turned a bottle up and I never turned one down
A C D
She gave me a thousand chances but I took them all down town
G Em C
It broke her heart, tore her apart, to make me a memory

But it took a lot of drinkin' to get that woman over me

The bottle was my weakness, I was livin' whiskey time
G Em C
Now it's too late and my heart's payin' for the things I couldn't see
G D G
But it took a lot of drinkin' to get that woman over me

She never turned a bottle up and I never turned one down

She gave me a thousand chances but I took them all down town

It broke her heart, tore her apart, to make me a memory
