Capo 3rd fret
Standard (EADGBE)
I been down on my luck
Been down, too long this time,
Ive drank onto the bottom
Till I found myself there too
And the taste of defeat, has never been so sweet
So I pour another glass and fail again. And again.
Ive been down, and Ive been higher than six towers
Ive asked the higher powers if they could just spare a drink
Did they answer my cries? I was a bit preoccupied.
Ive toasted them, boasted to them, that they had met their match
But as long as there is whiskey in the world
We can drink away the hearth ache
And drink away the girls
But we fall in love, but we never touch
As long as there is whiskey in the world.
I have loved, and Ive lost all that they gave me
They all try and save me
But Im seeing this thing through
And these feelings of remorse
They leave me no recourse
So I poured another glass, fail again and again
But as long as there is whiskey in the world
We can drink away the hearth ache
And drink away the girls
But we fall in love, but we never touch
As long as there is whiskey in the world.
I dont want to be saved
Instrumental
Ah, , Ah, Ah, Ah
..
as long as there is whiskey in the world
As long as there is whiskey in the world.
as there is whiskey
as there is whiskey
as there is whiskey in the world
