Writen by Bill Anderson/Jon Randall

Tabbed by  JerseyRock !!!   Enjoy


Intro:  Bm  G

            D            G                             Bm
She put him out like the burning end of a midnight cigarette
              D        G                                 A
She broke his heart he spent his whole life trying to forget
   Bm                                A           D
We watched him drink his pain away a little at a time
      Bm                               A               D
But he never could get drunk enough to get her off his mind
        A
Until tonight...


            D                                 A
He put that bottle to his head and pulled the trigger
    Bm                         G
And finally drank away her memory
D                                  A
Life is short but this time it was bigger
         Bm                                G
Than the strength he had to get up off his knees
     D                                   A
They found him with his face down in the pillow
       Bm                                 G
With a note that said I'll love her til I die
     D                             A
And when we buried him beneath the willow
    G              A            Bm
The angel's sang a whiskey lullaby
Bm                                       G Bm
La la la la la la la,  La la la la la la la
                                         G
La la la la la la la,  La la la la la la la


           D          G                               Bm
The rumors flew but nobody knew how much she blamed herself
              D         G                                 A
For years and years she tried to hide the whiskey on her breath
    Bm                            A           D
She finally drank her pain away a little at a time
        Bm                              A               D
But she never could get drunk enough to get him off her mind
          A
Until the night...


             D                      G          A
She put that bottle to her head and pulled the trigger
    Bm                         G
She finally drank away his memory
D                                  A
Life is short but this time it was bigger
         Bm                                 G
Than the strength she had to get up off her knees
   D                                   A
We found her with her face down in the pillow
Bm                               G
Clinging to his picture for dear life
    D                               A
We laid her next to him beneath the willow
          G              A           Bm
While the angel's sang a whiskey lullaby
Bm                                       G
La la la la la la la,  La la la la la la la

(repeat and fade)...
