Chords with lyrics
Chorus.
A augmentedA D MajorD A augmentedA
Well the whiskey makes you sweeter than you are.
If I'd quit drinkin' sooner
D MajorD E MajorE
I'm sure I wouldn't have gone that far.
D MajorD A augmentedA F# minorF#m
Now the haze has lifted
I can see
A augmentedA
That the whiskey makes you sweeter
E MajorE A augmentedA
Than you could ever really be.
Verse 1.
A augmentedA D MajorD A augmentedA
I started slow and steady
I went from cola to a beer.
D MajorD E MajorE
I made a resolution, from the liquor I'd steer clear.
D MajorD
When I saw you there
A augmentedA F# minorF#m
Something inside of me switched on
A augmentedA
When I switched to the whiskey
E MajorE A augmentedA
Then I knew that I was gone
Cos (chorus then instrumental break)
Verse 2
Sweets for a sweet heart, that is what you said to me
As you handed me a shot glass and I drank down
hungrily
I was lost in dreams of sweet things
Running through my head
If it wasn't for the whiskey
I'd have run away instead.
Cos (chorus)
Oh yest the whiskey makes you sweeter
Than you could ever be to me.
