Waltz About Whiskey

[Intro]
C  G/B  C  C/B  C/A  G

[Verse 1]
         G     G/F#  Em                C             G                              
Once the gettin' was good, but now the gettin's got gone
        D/F#                  C C/B C/A  G  
So I'm going downtown just to tie one    on
        G  G/F#  Em               C           G
I'm oak aged and sour, I'm  goin' down by the hour
           Em           D         G
and I'm as blue  as the night is long.


[Chorus]
        C            G/B          Am           G             
Won't  someone dance with me to a waltz about  whiskey
    Em          A7       D
And turn my sad songs to lullabies
        Em           G                 C        G   
I don't need much of nothin except for all your lovin'
        Em         D          G
And a waltz  about whiskey on ice


[Verse 2]
    G     G/F#     Em         C        G
One quarter should do, number A thirty-two
         D/F#                           C   C/B C/A  G
a little truth from the  jukebox should make it al - right
            G    G/F#  Em             C     G
and as  the booze sets in I'm getting high  again
     Em          D           G
to a waltz about whiskey on  ice


[Chorus]
        C            G/B          Am           G             
Won't  someone dance with me to a waltz about  whiskey
        Em       A7        D
And turn my sad songs to  lullabies
        Em           G                  C        G   
I don't need much of nothin  except for all your lovin'
        Em           D          G
And a waltz  about whiskey on ice


[Instrumental Interlude]
   G     G/F#  Em                C             G       
   D/F#                     C   C/B C/A  G 
   G  G/F#  Em               C           G
   Em              D         G


[Bridge]
A7    A7/E       D          Em                            C     
  I remember the night she  sat down beside me, she said love was a  
                 G
ring that won't end
                D/F#       B7
I was handed a  lie
        Em    G       Bm       C            G         D/F#           G
Now the only thing I know of a ring  is the circle my glass leaves behind


[Chorus]
        C            G/B          Am           G             
Won't  someone dance with me to a waltz about  whiskey
        Em       A7        D
And turn my sad songs to  lullabies
        Em           G                  C        G   
I don't need much of nothin  except for all your lovin'
        Em           D        C C/B C/A G
And a waltz  about whiskey on ice
