Intro:
|C |Em|F |C |C |F |C
Verse:
|C |Em |F |C
I thought it better not to talk about the letter that you sent
|G |F |C |G
It was no one else's business; it was barely even mine
|C |Em |F |C
The situation went the way the situation went
|G |F |C |G |F
We shook that s**t off of our shoes a hundred thousand times
Chorus:
|Am |G |F
Well won't you miss your whiskey in the wintertime, my dear?
|C |G |F
The way that I've been missing you this fall
|Am |G |F
And cheap champagne don't dull the pain of ringing in the year
|C |G |F
Wondering if you think of me at all
|C |Em|F |C |C |F |C
Verse:
|C |Em |F |C
The fool I loved in Kansas was the fool I loved the best
|G |F |C |G
You were fool enough to fall in love with me
|C |Em |F |C
We were two tornadoes touching down out in the old midwest
|G |F |C |G
And we did our best at dodging the debris
Chorus:
|Am |G |F
Well won't you miss your whiskey in the wintertime, my dear?
|C |G |F
The way that I've been missing you this fall
|Am |G |F
And cheap champagne don't dull the pain of ringing in the year
|C |G |F
Wondering if you think of me at all
|C |Em|F |C |C |F |C
Verse:
|C |Em |F |C
With a little more resolve I might be somewhere else with you
|G |F |C |G
But I'll make no resolution of the kind
|C |Em |F |C
So I guess it's just God bless, and you did all that you could do
|G |F |C |G |F
Let all the claims be forgot and never brought to mind
|Am |G |F
Two roman candles cut across a January sky
Chorus:
|Am |G |F
Well won't you miss your whiskey in the wintertime, my dear?
|C |G |F
The way that I've been missing you this fall
|Am |G |F
And cheap champagne don't dull the pain of ringing in the year
|C |G |F
Wondering if you think of me at all
|C |G |F
Well I still wonder about you sometimes, you know
|C |G |C |F
