[Intro]
G Em C D

[Chorus]
G Em I messed up, yeah, I broke her heart, C D Tore it all down, ripped it apart. G Em Said things I shouldn’t have said, C D Now I’m alone in this damn bed, G Em Wishing you was here by my side, C D But instead this bottle comforts all my lies, G Em Because the only truth that I’m trying to hide, C D Is that this bottle is the only thing I’m holding tight, Em Because tonight… C Yeah tonight… G There’s whiskey… D on your goodbye
---
[Verse 1]
G Em And if only you was here to see me now, C D Just to see how I treat myself when you’re not around, G Em With an ashtray full and the TV’s loud, C D Tryin’ to drown out the thought of you walkin’ out. G Em Your lipstick stain’s still on that glass, C D I keep starin’ at it hopin’ time rolls back.
G Em
But the clock keeps tickin’ and the whiskey pours,
C D And I’m cussin’ myself for slammin’ them doors. G Em Every picture on the wall feels like a fight, C D Every shadow in this house keeps me up at night. G Em I’d give anything just to hear your truck pull in… C D But all I hear’s the echo of the mess I’m in… Em And all it ever says…
---
[Chorus]
G Em I messed up, yeah, I broke her heart, C D Tore it all down, ripped it apart. G Em Said things I shouldn’t have said, C D Now I’m alone in this damn bed, G Em Wishing you was here by my side, C D But instead this bottle comforts all my lies, G Em Because the only truth that I’m trying to hide, C D Is that this bottle is the only thing I’m holding tight, Em Because tonight… C Yeah tonight… G There’s whiskey… D on your goodbye
---
[Verse 2]
G Em Neighbors hear me fightin’ with my own pride, C D Talkin’ to the shadows where you used to lie. G Em This bed’s too big, these sheets too cold, C D And the truth cuts deeper than the lies I told. G Em I swore I was tough, but I’m weak as hell, C D Drownin’ in a bottle and a cheap motel. G Em I’d trade every shot for one more night, C D But the devil in me won’t let it right. G Em Now the jukebox plays our song on repeat… C D And I’m prayin’ to God in hope that you’d believe… Em Every word when I say…

[Chorus]
G Em I messed up, yeah, I broke her heart, C D Tore it all down, ripped it apart. G Em Said things I shouldn’t have said, C D Now I’m alone in this damn bed, G Em Wishing you was here by my side, C D But instead this bottle comforts all my lies, G Em Because the only truth that I’m trying to hide, C D Is that this bottle is the only thing I’m holding tight, Em Because tonight… C Yeah tonight… G There’s whiskey… D on your goodbye
