Whiskey Sour

CAPO: 1st FRET

INTRO:
C G Am7 G F G

VERSE:
C
We were two heartbeats away
Am7 G F
From wedding rings and a pretty ballgown dress
C G
At the church off 40 West

C G Am7
And we were talking ‘bout our future on the steps
G F
Of your daddy’s screened in porch
G
That if I’d ask you’d tell me yes

C G Am7 G
Well, it only took a month or so to be someone you used to know
F G
You didn’t really have to go but you did

C G
And I’ve never been a somber soul
Am7 G
But part of me ain’t here no more
F C G
And I’ve been trying to find him ever since

CHORUS:
C G
So now I take my whiskey sour
Am7 G
Sitting barside after hours
F C Dm7 G
Thinking how can I get over if the love was never ours?

C G
Hell, I know you got my message
Am7 G
All my Xs and my Os
F C
And it kills me by the hour
Dm7 G C G Am7 G F G
Now I take my whiskey sours alone

VERSE:
C
‘Cause that one night under neon
Am7 G
Was the first time you ordered me one
F
And you told me that you loved me
G
But was it ever true?

C G
‘Cause your promises were empty
Am7 G
Now I’m drinking one too many
F G
Drowning out the memory of you

CHORUS:
C G
So now I take my whiskey sour
Am7 G
Sitting barside after hours
F C Dm G
Thinking how can I get over if the love was never ours?

C G
Hell, I know you got my message
Am7 G
All my Xs and my Os
F C
And it kills me by the hour
Dm G
Now I take my whiskey sours

BREAK:
Am
And I don’t know why I do it
G
It’s supposed to help me through it
F C Dm Am
But it’s harder when it always tastes like you

Am
And every time I hit rock bottom
Em
I don’t know what I should do
F C Dm G
Should I call you up again or should I settle for round two?

CHORUS:
C Em
And just take my whiskey sour
Am G
Sitting barside after hours
F C
Thinking how can I get over if the love was never ours?

C G
Hell, I know you got my message
Am G
All my Xs and my Os
F C
And it kills me by the hour
Dm G C G Am G
Now I take my whiskey sours alone

OUTRO:
F
And it kills me by the hour
C G C
Now I take my whiskey sours alone
