[Intro] C F [Chorus]
                      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
[Verse]
                 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 [Verse]
                    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
[Solo] F C F C F Bb F C F [Verse]

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
