  			Intro - C  F  
 
                      C          F             
I'm tired of drinkin' whiskey by myself 
                                   C 
I'm tired of drinkin' whiskey by myself 
  F 
I wish you'd take that bottle 
           Bb 
And put it right back on the shelf 
          F                 C            F 
Cause I'm tired of drinkin' whiskey by myself 
 
                 C              F 
I go down to the bar most every night 
                                C 
I go down to the bar most every night 
    F                               Bb     
The girls don't even notice and the boys all want to fight 
      F              C              F 
But I go down to the bar most every night 
  
 
Break - C  F 
 
                    C                 F 
The jukebox has not played my song in years 
                                      C 
The jukebox has not played my song in years 
F                              Bb     
On this same old barstool just backin' shots with beers 
        F               C                 F 
And the jukebox has not played my song in years 
 
 
                    C           F 
All my friends have gone so far away 
                                     C 
Said all my friends have gone so far away 
     F                             Bb                    
They all went down to Austin Lord I miss 'em night and day 
    F                   C           F 
And all my friends have gone so far away

I'm really not that funny anymore 
                             C 
I'm really not that funny anymore 
  F                        Bb  
I used to be a riot, now I'm just a lonely bore 
        F               C        F 
And I'm really not that funny anymore 
 
  
                          C                 F 
Do you think that I could stay in town with you 
                                            C 
Do you think that I could stay in town with you 
     F                                Bb 
It's thirty miles to my place and I'm feelin' tired and blue 
       F                  C                 F 
Do you think that I could stay in town with you 
  
   
                            C            F             
Cause I'm tired of drinkin' whiskey by myself 
                                   C 
I'm tired of drinkin' whiskey by myself 
  F 
I wish you'd take that bottle 
           Bb 
And put it right back on the shelf 
          F                 C            F     C     F 
Cause I'm tired of drinkin' whiskey by myself
