Intro:    

                                                      
She put him out like the burning end of a midnight cigarette
                                                       
She broke his heart he spent his whole life trying to forget
                                
We watched him drink his pain away a little at a time
                                 
But he never could get drunk enough to get her off his mind
         
Until tonight...


                                             
He put that bottle to his head and pulled the trigger
                             
And finally drank away her memory
                                   
Life is short but this time it was bigger
                                          
Than the strength he had to get up off his knees
                                          
They found him with his face down in the pillow
                                         
With a note that said I'll love her til I die
                                   
And when we buried him beneath the willow
                               
The angel's sang a whiskey lullaby
                                       
La la la la la la la,  La la la la la la la 
                                       
La la la la la la la,  La la la la la la la 


                                                     
The rumors flew but nobody knew how much she blamed herself
                                                        
For years and years she tried to hide the whiskey on her breath
                             
She finally drank her pain away a little at a time
                                  
But she never could get drunk enough to get him off her mind
           
Until the night...


                                              
She put that bottle to her head and pulled the trigger
                             
And finally drank away his memory
                                   
Life is short but this time it was bigger
                                           
Than the strength she had to get up off her knees
                                          
We found her with her face down in the pillow
                                
Clinging to his picture for dear life
                                    
We laid her next to him beneath the willow
                                 
While angel's sang a whiskey lullaby
                                            
La la la la la la la,  La la la la la la la
