George Jones - If Drinking Don't Kill Me
G
The bars are all closed
C G
It's four in the morning
Must have shut'em all down
D7
By the shape that I'm in
G
I lay my head on the wheel
C G
And the horn begins honking
The whole neighborhood knows
D7 G Riff
That I'm home drunk again
Chorus:
0 2 4 A E
And if drinking don't kill me
D7
Her memory will
0 2 4 A E
I can't hold out much lon ger
D7
The way that I feel
0 2 4 A E
With the blood from my bo dy
C
I could start my own still
0 2 4 A E
And if drinking don't kill me
D7 G
Her mem ory will
C,G D7 G
These will old bones they move slow
C G
But so sure of their footsteps
D7
As I trip on the floor and lightly touch down
G C G
Lord it's been ten bottles since I tried to forget her
D7 G
But the memory still lingers lying here on the ground
