Capo 2nd
[Verse 1]
D F#m G
That girl burned me, about as fast as I’m burnin’ these Winstons
D Em A
She took my reason for living, and then some
D F#m G
Everyone tells me I’m gonna be fine
G Gm
This heartache will give in if I just give it time
D A D
But meanwhile they don’t know the hell I’m going through
[Chorus]
D F#m C G
It’s gonna take whiskey and Whitley to get me over her
D Em A
Since “I’m No Stranger To The Rain,” guess I’ll start with that one first
Am7 D
I’m gonna hold up somewhere, crawl in a fifth
G Gm
With that worn out CD of his greatest hits
D Em A D
It’s gonna take whiskey and Whitley to get me over her
[Verse 2]
D F#m G
A double shot of "Tennessee Courage" helps me not to remember
D Em A
That I ain’t shaved in three days, I ain’t been goin’ round no mirrors
D F#m G
I wish I could sing along, to “I’m Over You,”
G Gm
But that’s a far cry from the truth –
D A D
Till my “Kentucky Bluebird” does a “Birmingham Turnaround."
[Chorus]
D F#m C G
It’s gonna take whiskey and Whitley to get me over her
D Em A
Since “I’m No Stranger To The Rain,” guess I’ll start with that one first
Am7 D
I’m gonna hold up somewhere, crawl in a fifth
G Gm
With that worn out CD of his greatest hits
D Em A D
It’s gonna take whiskey and Whitley to get me over her
Am7 D
Yeah, I’m gonna hold up somewhere, crawl in a fifth
G Gm
Play them old hurtin’ songs, that know right where to hit
D Em A D
It’s gonna take whiskey and Whitley to get me over her
D Em A D
It’s gonna take whiskey and Whitley to get me over her
