(G A Bb) C G
There was a time I could drink my cares away
G (G F# G G#)
Drown out all of the heartaches
A D
That hurt me night and day
G
When the thought of you came crashin' through
C G
I'd have one more
G D G
But now the whiskey ain't workin' anymore
Chorus :
C G
I need one good honky tonk angel to turn my life around
G Em A D
That's reason enough for me to lay this old bottle down
G C G
A woman warm and willin', that's what I'm lookin' for
G D G
'Cuz the whiskey ain't workin' anymore
Solo : C G (GFC) G D G
They knew my name at every bar in town
And they knew all of the reasons
Why I was coming round, round, round
'Cuz in my mind, peace I'd find
When they'd start to pour
Now the whiskey ain't workin' anymore
Repeat chorus
G D G
