Waltz About Whiskey

         G     G/F#  Em                C             G                              
Once the gettin' was good, but now the gettin's  got gone
        D/F#                     C   C/B C/A  G  
So i'm going downtown just to  tie one on
        G  G/F#  Em               C           G
I'm oak aged and sour, I'm  goin' down by the hour
        Em              D         G
and I'm as blue  as the night is long.

(chorus):
        C            G/B          Am           G             
Won't  someone dance with me to a waltz about  whiskey
        Em       A7        D
And turn my sad songs to  lullabies
        Em           G                  C        G   
I don't need much of nothin  except for all your lovin'
        Em           D          G
And a waltz  about whiskey on ice
G     G/F#     Em         C        G
One quarter should do, number A thirty-two
         D/F#                           C   C/B C/A  G
a little truth from the  jukebox should make it al - right
            G    G/F#  Em             C     G
and as  the blues sets in I'm getting high  again
     Em          D           G
to a waltz about whiskey on  ice

(instrumental interlude, same chords as verse)

(repeat chorus)

A7    A7/E       D          Em                            C     
I remember the night she  sat down beside me, she said love was a  
                 G
ring that won't end
                D/F#       B7
I was handed a  lie
        Em    G       Bm       C            G         D/F#           G
Now the only thing I know of a ring  is the circle my glass leaves behind

(repeat chorus, Final chord starts at C and walks down to G)
