Whiskey - Deaf Havana
!!! NO CAPO !!!
INTRO:
G Cadd9 G Cadd9
VERSE 1:
G
Smell of instant coffee,
Cadd9
Reminds me of the days when I,
G
Had other plans, other prospects,
Cadd9
Other ways of getting by,
Em C
Before this useless ink was drilled in, My tired skin,
D
There was life,
Behind my eyes,
G
See I'd of been a teacher,
Cadd9
Changed peoples lives including mine,
G
I could have moved out years ago,
Cadd9
And not be drowning in this wine,
Em
Forgetting how to swim,
C
And everyday I lose,
D
Cus' i'm still treading this water,
I've been turning into booze.
CHORUS:
Cadd9 G
Whiskey on my tongue and blood on my hands,
Em D Cadd9
It's only a matter of time,
Em D
Before i see you fall to another mans arms
Em D Cadd9
So why should i come home tonight?
Cadd9 (Mute)
Why should i come home tonight?
G Cadd9 G Cadd9
VERSE 2 :
G
I'm sick of risking my health
Cadd9
On these three hundred day weekends,
G
Days of useless excuses,
Cadd9
Oh I'm hungover again,
Em
Life stopped answering my calls,
Cadd9 D
And i'm getting friendlier with death, He said he'd trade me a bottle for what little soul I have left,
G
And I said yes,
Cadd9
How else am i gonna' spend my time?
G
I could kid myself i'm healing,
Cadd9
Tell my friends i'm doing fine,
Em
I could ask the lord for forgiveness,
Cadd9 D
But me and him don't get on well, Besides I doubt he could hear me,
From down here in my own hell.
CHORUS:
Cadd9 G
Whiskey on my tongue and blood on my hands,
Em D Cadd9
It's only a matter of time,
Em D
Before i see you fall to another mans arms
Em D Cadd9
So why should i come home tonight?
Em D Cadd9
Why should i come home tonight?
BRIDGE:
Cadd9 Em D
It's like you got it all figured out,
Cadd9 Em D
And the words just get stuck in my mouth,
Cadd9 Em
All the faces are changing,
D Cadd9
And i'm left alone once again,
My friend, give me something to believe in.
CHORUS:
Cadd9 G
Oh with Whiskey on my tongue and blood on my hands,
Em D Cadd9
It's only a matter of time,
Em D
Before i see you fall to another mans arms
Em D Cadd9
So why should i come home tonight?
Em D Cadd9
Why should i come home tonight?
Em D Cadd9
Why should i come home tonight?
G
Come home tonight.
