Verse:

B minorBm
I guess I grew up on an old dirt road
F#F#
Pedal to the metal always did what I was told
E7E7
Till I found out that my brand new clothes
F#F#
Came second hand from the rich kids next door
B minorBm
When I grew up fast, I guess I grew up mean
F#F#
There's a thousand things inside my head I wish I ain't seen
E7E7
And now I just wondered through a real bad dream
F#F#
Feelin' like I'm comin' apart at the seems


Chorus:

B minorBm
Thank you Jack Daniels, Old Number Seven
F#F#
Tennessee Whiskey got me drinkin' in heaven
E7E7
Angels start to look good to me
F#F#
They're gonna have to deport me to the fiery deeps

B minorBm
Thank you Jack Daniels, Old Number Seven
F#F#
Tennessee Whiskey got me drinkin' in heaven
E7E7
I know I can't stay here to long
F#F#                     B minorBm
Cause I can't go a week with out doin' wrong
       F#F#
Without doin' wrong (Old Number Seven)
       E7E7
Without doin' wrong (Drinking in heaven)
       F#F#
Without doin' wrong (Old Number Seven)

Drinkin' in heaven

Instrumental:

B minorBm / F#F# / E7E7 / F#F#


Verse:

B minorBm
So I'm sitting at the bar stool, it starts to grow roots
F#F#
Feelin' like an old worn out pair of shoes
E7E7
Tell me what is it I should do
F#F#
When I'm swimming in the liquor only half way through
B minorBm
So I'm watching as his wings spread as wide as could be
F#F#
Come on now and wrap them around me
E7E7
Cause all I want to do now is fall to sleep
F#F#
Come down here and lay next to me


Chorus:

B minorBm
Thank you Jack Daniels, Old Number Seven
F#F#
Tennessee Whiskey got me drinkin' in heaven
E7E7
Up here the bottle never runs dry
F#F#
And you never wake up with those tears in your eyes

B minorBm
Thank you Jack Daniels, Old Number Seven
F#F#
Tennessee Whiskey got me drinkin' in heaven
E7E7
Angels start to look good to me
F#F#                       B minorBm
They're gonna have to deport me to the fiery deeps (Old Number Seven)
       F#F#
To the fiery deeps (Drinkin' in heaven)
       E7E7
To the fiery deeps (Old Number Seven)
       F#F#
To the fiery deeps (Drinkin' in heaven)

I personally like to play the song like this adding the bass line in with my thumb
while strumming the chords.
