Written By Marty Stuart & Ronny Scaife

Submitted by: RoC


There was a time(G A Bb) I could (C)drink my cares (G)away 

(G)Drown out all of the heartaches(F# F G G#)

 that (A*)hurt me night and (D7*)day.

when the (G)thought of you came crashin' through.

(C)I'd have one (G)more,

but now the whiskey ain't (D7)workin' anymore

(chorus)(walk up G to C)
I need (C)one good honky-tonk angel

to (G)turn my life around.

That's (G)reason enough(F#) for(F) me(E7) to lay (A7)this

Ol' bottle (D7)down

A(G)woman warm and willin'

that's (C7)what i'm lookin' (G)for

'cause the (G)whisky ain't (D7)workin' (G)anymore

Solo C 	  	 G 	  	 G   D7  G

They knew my name (G A B C)at every bar in (G)town

and they knew all of the reasons (F# G G#)

(A7*)why I was comin' (D7*)'round,'round,'round.

'cause (G)in my mind (C)peace i'd find

(G)when they'd start to (C)pour

but now the (G)whiskey

ain't (D7)workin' (G)anymore

(repeat chorus)

(C)Lord the whisky ain't (D)workin' (G)anymore
that's for sure!
