D  A  E

[Verse 1]
                          B7                           E
Smoke and a guitar for my friends; I had to go and try again
                              B7                                   E
Two good hands and a restless soul, I'm down to seeds and stems to roll
E7                             A                                    E
  If I could stop time turning backwards, I guess I'd do it all the same
                   B7                               E      D  A  E
And it's a sad sad story when theres no one left to blame

[Chorus]
                           A                              E
When theres no one left to blame for the things I put you through
                          B7                               E
And I'm left with all the pieces of what I did and did not do
E7                             A                                E      G#  A
  Thats why I'm all alone this evening, I can hear the midnight train
                   B7                                 E      D  A  E
And it's a sad sad story of a man with no one left to blame

[Verse 2]
                        B7                                E 
Alone I left you on the border counting footprints in the sand
                         B7                                 E                
Now my life seems out of order, but my ring's still on your hand
E7                          A                                   E              
  I've tried all that I can think of, wouldn't help me ease the pain
                  B7                                E     D  A  E
And it's a sad sad story when theres no one left to blame

[Chorus]
         D      G                   D
But then tonight the whiskey got me thinking
            D  G                        A
Thinking of her and her memories got me drinking
            D      G           D
Drowning my sorrow, I'm slowly sinking
              Em    G                        D
I should know better but the whiskeys got me thinking

[Solo]
D G D D G A

[Chorus]
         D      G                   D
But then tonight the whiskey got me thinking
            D  G                        A
Thinking of her and her memories got me drinking
            D      G           D
Drowning my sorrow, I'm slowly sinking
              Em    G                        D
I should know better but the whiskeys got me thinking

[Tag]
                       A                               E
Now I'm all alone this evening, I slowly start to go insane
                    B7                                 E
Lord it's a sad sad story of a man with no one left to blame
                   B7                                E      D  A  E  (3x)    
Yes it's a sad sad story when there's no one left to blame
