Whisky Lullabies chords by Janet Devlin

Intro:

C  F  Am  F



C
When I was a child
       F
They'd ask me where it hurt
    Am                      F
And wipe the tears from my eyes
 C
Short embraces gentle
 F                      Am                F
Forehead kisses making sure that I was all right
   C                     F
As I grew older and the nights grew shorter
      Am                    F
I no longer cared where it hurt

 C
And all I hear is
 F
Whisky lullabies
 Am                F        C
Lets you cradle me to sleep
 C
And all I hear is
 F
Whisky lullabies
 Am                F
Lets you cradle me to sleep

(C  F  Am  F)

 C
Scars they heal in time
     F
The raw wounds of my mind
      Am               F
They aren't as easily fixed
     C
You can't mend what isn't broken
 F
Kind words are rarely spoken
   Am                 F
In time I will learn this
    C                     F
But I grow older and the nights grow shorter
 Am                  F
Drowning as I sink or swim

 C
And all I hear is
 F
Whisky lullabies
 Am                 F       C
Lets you cradle me to sleep
 C
And all I hear is
 F
Whisky lullabies
 Am                 F
Lets you cradle me to sleep
 C                      F
Sticks and stones they break me to the bone
     Am
But words they cut
 F
They will always hurt me

  F    G           Am
Please be my saving grace
  F    G           Am
Please be my saving grace
 F       G            Am
There to answer all my prayers
 F     G           Am     Dm  F
Please be my saving grace

 C
And all I hear is
 F
Whisky lullabies
 Am                  F      C
Lets you cradle me to sleep
 C
And all I hear is
 F
Whisky lullabies
 Am                  F
Lets you cradle me to sleep
  C                     F
Sticks and stones they break me to the bone
     Am
But words they cut
  F
They will always hurt me
  C                     F
Sticks and stones they break me to the bone
     Am
But words they cut
 F
