Capo 1

E                 C#m   
Drunk and totally drained
       E                     A
On the verge of going crazy, on the edge of insane
Am                              E                  F#m
I know you'd prayed I'd make it but I never pulled through
B                          E
I gave up on going on girl just like I gave up on you


Chorus 1:
              A             E 
But don't you cry darlin'.  Though it's a cryin' shame.
B                                   E                E7
I was hooked on that whiskey so bad, I didn't know my name
                  A            E                    F#m
When I die, don't cry darlin', well it's not you're fault
E              A                       B          E 
I was stealin' time from the devil and I just got caught


E                              C#m
You know Hon, David left you so long ago
                         E                               A
He didn't want to darlin, aw but his dyin words told you so
                                    Am
But that strong stuff, aww, it was always his weakness
                           E      F#m  
But hell, any man can be a fool
B
And I know that he was so ashamed and sorry
              E
For all those bad things that he did to you


Chorus 2:
But don't you cry darlin'.  Though it's a cryin' shame.
I was hooked on that whiskey so bad, I didn't know my name
When I die, don't cry darlin', well it's not you're fault
I was stealin' time from the devil and I just got caught


Chorus 3:
Don't you cry darlin'.  though it's a cryin' shame
I was hooked on that bottle so bad, I didn't know my name ...fade
