Brad Paisley – Whiskey Lullaby chords

Standard tuning. (eadgbE)

She put him out like the burning end of a midnight cigarette 
    A         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... 
 
 
Chorus 1:  
            D                      G          A He put that bottle to his head and pulled the trigger 
    Bm                     A   G And finally drank away her memory 
D                                   A Life is short but this time it was bigger 
         Bm                        A        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                           A     G With a note that said I'll love her til I die 
     D                             A And when we buried him beneath the willow 
    G                          Bm The angel's sang a whiskey lullaby 
Bm                                       G La la la la la la la,  La la la la la la la 
Bm                                       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 
    A         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... 
 
 
Chorus 2:  
             D                      G          A She put that bottle to her head and pulled the trigger 
    Bm                     A   G And finally drank away his memory

Bm                       A        G Clinging to his picture for dear life 
    D                               A We laid her next to him beneath the willow 
      G                          Bm While angel's sang a whiskey lullaby 
Bm                                       G   Bm  G La la la la la la la,  La la la la la la la
