Intro G D G
G
I got lost in whiskey about 1989
C G
To the point I had to learn to fly
G
So I left to ride the rails, ease my troubled mind
C G
Sanity was all I’d left behind
D C
Couldn't drown the memories or numb the pain
G D G
Ah with whiskey and sweet cocaine
G
I woke up in Kingston face down in the road
C G
Half an ounce still in my bill fold
G
Went and bought a 40, to chase away the drip
C G
I was numb down to my finger tips
D C
Couldn’t drown the sorrows or fly away
G D G
Ah with whiskey and sweet cocaine
C G
Cause the whiskey, will leave you mired
C D
While the cocaine takes you higher
C D G G/F# Em
And no matter where you go, it’s always the same
G D G
Ah with whiskey and sweet cocaine
G
When I went back to find her still holding on to him
C G
I felt it all come back rushing in
G
So I mixed me up a drink, a little powder in the Crown
C G
Went back home and got that shotgun down
D C
Put that gun to his ribcage
G D G
Ah with whiskey and sweet cocaine
C G
Cause the whiskey will leave you mired
C D
While the cocaine takes you higher
C D G G/F#
And two smoken barrels gone in my daddies old 12
Em
gauge
G D G
Ah with whiskey and sweet cocaine
C G D G
Ah with whiskey and sweet cocaine
