(Verse 1)
Hey, (A) smoke rings in a dark room
(G) Broke heart on a bar stool
(D) Ash tray full of burnt out ciga-reg-(A)rets
(A) Sad sound on a jukebox
(G) Strong stuff on a few rocks
(D) Head full of all the things that I should'a said (A) (Uh)
(Chorus)
So give me that (A)bourbon and Bocephus
I can't (G)help me so help me Jesus (Jesus)
(D)She ain't coming back like you
She (A)gone (Back like you)
Said what I (A)need is them Williams boys right now
(G)Hank ain't never gon' let me down (Gon' let me down)
(D)Bring them family traditions (A)on (Bring 'em on, bring 'em on, bring 'em on)
Yeah, I'm (G)just keep sittin' here sippin' and singin' along
(D) Thank God for drinkin' and drinkin' (A)songs
(Verse 2)
(A) New girl and a slow dance (Slow dance)
(G) She don't know there ain't no chance (No chance)
(D) I'ma 'member her name when that rooster (A)sings (Ooh, ooh-ooh)
(A) My mama put me on a prayer list
(G) Brother says, "Only time will fix it"
I (D)know they're right, but y'all patience ain't my (A)thing (No, it ain't, woo)
(Chorus)
So give me that (A)bourbon and Bocephus
I can't (G)help me so help me Jesus (Jesus)
(D)She ain't coming back like you
She (A)gone (Back like you)
Said what I (A)need is them Williams boys right now
(G)Hank ain't never gon' let me down (Gon' let me down)
(D)Bring them family traditions (A)on (Bring 'em on, bring 'em on, bring 'em on)

(Bridge)
But I (A)know this bottle don't love me (Love me)
(G) And I ain't never met Hank
But I (D)know old Juney wouldn't judge me
Singin’, (A) "Why do you drink?" (So why do you drink?)
All this (A)whiskey here ain't helping my case
So, (G)give me the heaven with hell
It's the (D)only thing that can't push away like (A)I do everybody else
(Chorus)
So give me that (A)bourbon and Bocephus
I can't (G)help me so help me Jesus (Jesus)
(D)She ain't coming back like you
She (A)gone (Back like you)
Said what I (A)need is them Williams boys right now
(G)Hank ain't never gon' let me down (Gon' let me down)
(D)Bring them family traditions (A)on (Bring 'em on, bring 'em on, bring 'em on)
