D G Lately I been drinkin’ too much whiskey D A I been, gettin’ drunk now everyday D G I can’t sober up, to face the heartache D A D Knowin’ that I Drank My Wife Away
D G She told me to stop drinkin’, or she’d leave me D A I never heard one word she tried to say D G Instead of holdin’ her, I held the bottle D A D Until I finally Drank My Wife Away
Chorus: G D Just pour me, a double shot of whiskey A I’ll be here, till I drink up all my pay D (stop) G Between Jim Beam, George Dickel, and Jack Daniel’s D A D I guess(think) I’ll finally Drank My Wife Away.
D G I been tryin’ hard, to drowned my sorrow D A Ever since that woman, went a stray D G And the jukebox knows that I’m bound, and determined D A D To do my best to Drank My Wife Away.
D G Please don’t cut me off, or I’ll go crazy D A I’ve lost, everything except my mind D G Now I’ll give my car keys, to the barmaid D A D You can call me a cab, at closin’ time.
