Verse:
E
Well I heard Jimmy Rogers sing
      A                        E
On my daddy's old record machine
E
Something bout a when you got love
                    B
All you got is love to lose
       E
And if I learned one thing about hank
        A                       E
Is that him and his kid like to drink
E                    B                E
Living whiskey bent, feeling lovesick blues

Straight to hell
      A
I'm a whiskey drinking, new low sinking
                     E
Love em and leave em kind

Chorus:
       A
And if it's worth keeping, you better believe it
                       B
I'm loosing it with my mind
E
Anything I pick up from one of them songs
     A                    E
Just a new way not to get burnt
   E
But it's the same old bottle
B
Same old blues
                        E
The same hard lesson to learn

Verse:
       E
Well I heard that old George Jones
A                            E
Bottomed out from all the no shows
         E                                B7
Girl I'm watching my heroes run away like hall up pow
      E
And a little like a rolling stone
  A                            E
I ain't worth it if I gotta be alone
    E               B                      E
I'm a lost highway, the devil collects the tolls
    A
I'm a whiskey drinking, new low sinking
                 E
Love and leaving kind

Chorus:
       A
And if it's worth keeping, you better believe it
                       B
I'm loosing it with my mind
E7
Anything I pick up from one of men song
A                         E
Just a new way not to get burnt
             E7
But it's the same old bottle
B
Same old blues
   B7                   E

But it's the same old bottle
B
Same old blues
    E
The same hard lesson to learn
         E
It's the same old bottle
B
Same old blues
    E
The same hard lesson to learn
