Capo 2nd

Verse 1:
D MajorD               F# minorF#m         G+G
That girl burned me, about as fast as I’m burnin’ these Winstons
      D MajorD         E minorEm      A augmentedA
She took my reason for living, and then some
D MajorD         F# minorF#m        G+G
Everyone tells me I’m gonna be fine
G+G                G minorGm
This heartache will give in if I just give it time
D MajorD            A augmentedA            D MajorD
But meanwhile they don’t know the hell I’m going through

Chorus:
D MajorD              F# minorF#m        C majorC  G+G
It’s gonna take whiskey and Whitley to get me over her
D MajorD                             E minorEm       A augmentedA
Since “I’m No Stranger To The Rain,” guess I’ll start with that one first
     Am7Am7        D MajorD
I’m gonna hold up somewhere, crawl in a fifth
     G+G        G minorGm
With that worn out CD of his greatest hits
D MajorD              E minorEm     A augmentedA      D MajorD
It’s gonna take whiskey and Whitley to get me over her

Verse 2:
D MajorD              F# minorF#m          G+G
A augmentedA double shot of "Tennessee Courage" helps me not to remember
       D MajorD                         E minorEm    A augmentedA
That I ain’t shaved in three days, I ain’t been goin’ round no mirrors
    D MajorD          F# minorF#m        G+G
I wish I could sing along, to “I’m Over You,”
G+G          G minorGm
But that’s a far cry from the truth –
    D MajorD              A augmentedA          D MajorD
Till my “Kentucky Bluebird” does a “Birmingham Turnaround."


Chorus:
D MajorD              F# minorF#m        C majorC  G+G
It’s gonna take whiskey and Whitley to get me over her
D MajorD                             E minorEm       A augmentedA
Since “I’m No Stranger To The Rain,” guess I’ll start with that one first
     Am7Am7        D MajorD
I’m gonna hold up somewhere, crawl in a fifth
     G+G        G minorGm
With that worn out CD of his greatest hits
D MajorD              E minorEm     A augmentedA      D MajorD
It’s gonna take whiskey and Whitley to get me over her

        Am7Am7        D MajorD
Yeah, I’m gonna hold up somewhere, crawl in a fifth
   G+G                 G minorGm
Play them old hurtin’ songs, that know right where to hit

D MajorD              E minorEm     A augmentedA      D MajorD
It’s gonna take whiskey and Whitley to get me over her
D MajorD              E minorEm     A augmentedA      D MajorD
It’s gonna take whiskey and Whitley to get me over her
