CAPO 2 
 A       A E        F#m     A E
He sits all alone in his easy chair 
     A       E       A   A E
Staring back on his lost yesterdays 
  A       A E       F#m   A E
Long before he encountered the bottle 
     A     E      A     A E A  A E
And the demons that drove her away 
 
     A      A E       F#m      A E
In his hand he is holding her photograph 
  A     E            A    A E
Her image all tear-stained and worn 
  A       A E    F#m    A E
Tonight he's embracing reality 
    A      E       A   A (bass walk A B C#)
And he curses the day he was born 
 
Chorus: 
     D                 A
And the darkness still echoes her warning 
  D          A        F#m
You can't have two loves in your life 
    A
Now the things that will haunt him 
               D
Until the day that he dies 
     A
Is the smell of cheap whiskey 
     E       A       A
And the sound of goodbye 
 
      A                   F#m
Since the hour that she left he's been sober 
     A        E           A
And each breath that he draws makes him think 
      A                   F#m
About the light of his life gone forever 
   A       E       A
When he traded her love for a drink 
 
 
(chorus  x2), between play: 
D (4 meas) A (2 m) E (1 m)  A (3 m ) 


Notes:  Between A and D and from D to A there are bass 
 walk-up (A B C#  D)    and walk downs (D C# B A) in a lot of
places.  Listen to it, it'll make sense.
