Blacked Out

G D G

[Verse 1]
Em             G
I won't lie, it hurts like hell
C                   G
So I'm doin' shots, just tryin' to deal
Em                 D
But all this pain, she left me with
C                   G
So I'm getting gone so I can get
[Chorus]
G
Blacked out
                D
Like Elvis in 1968
                     Em
Like Johnny Cash any given day
                       C
Like a Mach 1 Fastback Mustang
            G                                     D
I'm blacked out like the clouds hanging over this heart of mine
                              Em
These ray bans covering up my eyes
                   C             G
Not a shadow of a doubt, blacked out

Em

[Verse 2]
Em          D
Her goodbye rattles around
C           D   G
Just like a gh--ost in this house
       Em           D
That's why I drink, to drown it out
  Em                                G
It's the only way I know to let her go for a little while
[Chorus]
G
Blacked out
                D
Like Elvis in 1968
                     Em
Like Johnny Cash any given day
                       C
Like a Mach 1 Fastback Mustang
            G                                     D
I'm blacked out like the clouds hanging over this heart of mine
                              Em
These ray bans covering up my eyes
                   C             G
Not a shadow of a doubt, blacked out

C G D

[Bridge]
        G
Blacked out
                     D
Like that label on a bottle of jack
               Em
The old guitar Emmylou has
                                  C
Like the coal at the bottom of an old mine shaft

[Partial Chorus]
        G
Blacked out
                                  D
Like the clouds hanging over this heart of mine
                         Em
The ray bans covering up my eyes
                  C
Not a shadow of a doubt

[Outro]
    G             D
No, there's not a shadow of a doubt
C       G      Em
Blacked out
        G      Em D
Blacked out
