Chords

[Verse 1]
G 
Well I've done some things 

              Em 
That I can't undo 

              C 
I took your trust 

                 D 
And I tore it in two 

G                                            Em 
No man in his right mind could've said it's over 

          C          D               G
Still, I told you goodbye completely sober 
[Chorus]
Em            C           D 
Wish I could say I'd been drinkin' 

              Em 
And blame the bottle 

         C                  D 
But I've never been one to booze 

Em        C                D 
Lord only knows what I was thinkin' 

                          C 
Wish I could say I'd been drinkin' 

         D                    G 
But even that's just a fool's excuse 
[Verse 2]
G
Well, my mom knows 

                   Em
Her baby boy knows better 

           C
it's gonna break her heart 

                    D
To hear we're not together 

             G                          Em
She's always said she cares so much for you 

                     C
So what is she gonna say 

          D                 G
About the hell I've put you through 
[Chorus]
Em            C           D 
Wish I could say I'd been drinkin' 

              Em 
And blame the bottle 

         C                  D 
But I've never been one to booze 

Em        C                D 
Lord only knows what I was thinkin' 

                          C 
Wish I could say I'd been drinkin' 

         D                    G 
But even that's just a fool's excuse
[Verse 3]
Em                              G 
Even Tennessee whiskey couldn't wash away the pain 

C 
Watered down with tear drops 

     D 
Over light Kentucky rain 
[Chorus]
Em            C           D 
Wish I could say I'd been drinkin' 

              Em 
And blame the bottle 

         C                  D 
But I've never been one to booze 

Em        C                D 
Lord only knows what I was thinkin' 

                          C 
Wish I could say I'd been drinkin' 

         D                    G 
But even that's just a fool's excuse

Em            C           D 
Wish I could say I'd been drinkin' 

              Em 
And blame the bottle 

         C                  D 
But I've never been one to booze 

Em        C                D 
Lord only knows what I was thinkin' 

                          C 
Wish I could say I'd been drinkin' 

         D                    G 
But even that's just a fool's excuse
