Whiskey & Blues

I’ll take one shot of heartache

I’ll take one shot of heartache,

and a chaser of big fat lies

a double dose of goodbye baby

to go with my tear stained eyes

Another round of lonely nights

for me without you

Trying to find a little comfort in

whiskey and blues

Hey Mr. Bartender

I got a big tip for you

Love is like a shot of jack

you can feel it through and through

But then you’ll need another shot

to keep that feeling strong

cuz love is like a bottomless glass of

“where did we go wrong”

I’ve racked up a big tab of heartache

thanks to the likes of you

Just trying to find a little comfort in

whiskey and blues

heartbreak
