Tennessee Whiskey

by George Jones

G                  C           G

I used to spend my nights in a barroom

D7

Liquor was the only friend I knew

        G               C                G

But you rescued me from reaching for the bottle

                             D7            G

And you brought me back from being too far gone

G         C                    G

You're as smo-oth as Tennessee whiskey

D7

You're as sweet as strawberry wine

          G         G7       C

You're as warm as a glass of brandy

           G              D7           G

And I stay stoned on your love all the time

G                    C             G

I looked for love in all the wrong places

D7

Found the bottom of the bottle always dry

         G                        C        G

But when you poured out your love I didn't waste it

                              D7             G

Cause there nothing like your love to get me high

G         C                    G

You're as smo-oth as Tennessee whiskey

D7

You're as sweet as strawberry wine

          G         G7       C

You're as warm as a glass of brandy

           G              D7           G

And I stay stoned on your love all the time
