"Straight Tequila"
D
I'm down and out on the border
A
She's in love up in Dallas
D G
She say's it's over I'm still thinkin' about us
D A
Well I'm on the run with a heartache hot on my heels
D A
So I'm stirring up feelings like booze in a blender
D G
And pouring my heart out to the bartender
D A D/A
Held up on the border while she holds another tonight...
(Chorus)
D A
And I'm pouring straight tequila over mixed emotions
D G
Drowning my sorrow by cryin' an ocean
A
Should I stoop to beg or just let her go
D A
I'm in a sea of confusion and I can't swim
D G
One minute I'm fumin' then I'm crying again
D A D
Pouring straight tequila over mixed emotions tonight!
D A
A shaker of salt, a quarter of lime
D G
Turning three finger shooters a' one at a time
A
Chased by a memory tonight that I can't escape
D A
I'm down to my last buck and my last swallow
D G
And just my luck Hey there's a worm in my bottle
D A D/A
But it's my last shot so here's to love on the rocks...
(repeat Chorus)
G D
And I'm pouring straight tequila
A D
over mixed emotions tonight!!!
