Chords with lyrics
Tennessee Whiskey
recorded by George Jones
written by Dean Dillon and Linda Hargrove
Capo 1st Fret
E MajorE A augmentedA E MajorE
I used to spend my nights in a barroom
B7B7
Liquor was the only friend I knew
E MajorE A augmentedA E MajorE
But you rescued me from reaching for the bottle
B7B7 E MajorE
And you brought me back from being too far gone
E MajorE A augmentedA E MajorE
You're as smo-oth as Tennessee whiskey
B7B7
You're as sweet as strawberry wine
E MajorE E7E7 A augmentedA
You're as warm as a glass of brandy
E MajorE B7B7 E MajorE
And I stay stoned on your love all the time
E MajorE A augmentedA E MajorE
I looked for love in all the wrong places
B7B7
Found the bottom of the bottle always dry
E MajorE A augmentedA E MajorE
But when you poured out your love I didn't waste it
B7B7 E MajorE
Cause there nothing like your love to get me high
E MajorE A augmentedA E MajorE
You're as smo-oth as Tennessee whiskey
B7B7
You're as sweet as strawberry wine
E MajorE E7E7 A augmentedA
You're as warm as a glass of brandy
E MajorE B7B7 E MajorE
And I stay stoned on your love all the time
