[Intro]
D A E
[Verse 1]
B7 E
Smoke and a guitar for my friends; I had to go and try again
B7 E
Two good hands and a restless soul, I'm down to seeds and stems to roll
E7 A E
If I could stop time turning backwards, I guess I'd do it all the same
B7 E D A E
And it's a sad sad story when theres no one left to blame
[Chorus]
A E
When theres no one left to blame for the things I put you through
B7 E
And I'm left with all the pieces of what I did and did not do
E7 A E G# A
Thats why I'm all alone this evening, I can hear the midnight train
B7 E D A E
And it's a sad sad story of a man with no one left to blame
[Verse 2]
B7 E
Alone I left you on the border counting footprints in the sand
B7 E
Now my life seems out of order, but my ring's still on your hand
E7 A E
I've tried all that I can think of, wouldn't help me ease the pain
B7 E D A E
And it's a sad sad story when theres no one left to blame
[Chorus]
D G D
But then tonight the whiskey got me thinking
D G A
Thinking of her and her memories got me drinking
D G D
Drowning my sorrow, I'm slowly sinking
Em G D
I should know better but the whiskeys got me thinking
[Solo]
D G D D G A
[Chorus]
D G D
But then tonight the whiskey got me thinking
D G A
Thinking of her and her memories got me drinking
D G D
Drowning my sorrow, I'm slowly sinking
Em G D
I should know better but the whiskeys got me thinking
[Tag]
A E
Now I'm all alone this evening, I slowly start to go insane
B7 E
Lord it's a sad sad story of a man with no one left to blame
B7 E D A E (3x)
Yes it's a sad sad story when there's no one left to blame
