If Drinking Don't Kill Me

Capo 2


    E
The bars are all closed
     A           E
It's four in the morning
          E
Must have shut 'em all down
       E              B
By the shape that I'm in
         E
I lay my head on the wheel
        A           E
And the horn begins honking
          E
The whole neighborhood knows
         B          E
That I'm home drunk again


                      A    E
And if drinking don't kill me
           B
Her memory will
        B             A  B
I can't hold out much longer
               E
The way that I feel
                       A E
With the blood from my body
                     A
I could start my own still
    A                 E
But if drinking don't kill me
    B      E
Her memory will



These will old bones they move slow
But so sure of their footsteps
As I trip on the floor and lightly touch down
Lord it's been ten bottles since I tried to forget her
But the memory still lingers lying here on the ground

Chorus
