G 
 Well I've done some things 
               Em 
 That I can't undo 
               C 
 I took your trust 
                  D 
 And I tore it in two 
 G                                            Em 
 No man in his right mind could've said it's over 
           C          D         
 Still I, told you goodbye completely sober 
  
  
  
 (Chorus) 
  
 Em            C           D 
 Wish I could say I'd been drinkin' 
               Em 
 And blame the bottle 
          C                  D 
 But I've never been one to booze 
 Em        C                D 
 Lord only knows what I was thinkin' 
                           C 
 Wish I could say I'd been drinkin' 
          D                    G 
 But even that's just a fool's excuse 
  
  
  
 Well my mom knows 
 Her baby boy knows better 
 So it's gonna break her heart 
 To hear we're not together 
 She's always said she cares so much for you 
 So what is she gonna say 
 About the hell I've put you through 
  
  
  
 (Chorus) 
  
  
 Em                              G 
 Even Tennessee whiskey couldn't wash away the pain 
 C 
 Watered down with tear drops 
      D 
 Over light Kentucky rain 
  
  
  
 (Chorus 2x)
