If Drinking Don’t Kill Me
recorded by George Jones [3/4 time]
written by
Harlan Sanders and Rick Baresford
 
C
The bars are all closed
F C
It’s four in the morning

Must have shut ’em all down
G7
By the shape that I’m in

C
I lay my head on the wheel
F C
And the horn begins honking

The whole neighborhood knows
G7 C
That I’m home drunk again

F C
And if drinking don’t k-ill me
G7
Her memory will
F G7
I can’t hold out much long-er
C
The way that I feel

F C
With the blood from my bo-dy
F
I could start my own still
C
And if drinking don’t kill me
G7 C
Her memory will


These will old bones they move slow
F C
But so sure of their footsteps

As I trip on the floor
G7
And I lightly touch down

C
Lord it’s been ten bottles
F C
Since I tried to forget her

But the memory still lingers
G7 C
Lying here on the ground
