Intro:          4X

                                                             
       If I make it through this year, I think I'm gonna put this bottle down
                                                                       
       I guess as time goes on I'll grow to miss it less than I do now
                                             
       Think I'm gonna tell her that I'm gonna go away for a while
                               
       Till I can get this demon out

       You know the bottle ain't to blame and I ain't trying to
                                             
       Cause it don't make you do a thing, it just lets you
                                              
       When I'm six feet underground, I'll need a drink or two
                            
       And I'll sure miss you

                                  
Take me piece by piece 
                                                       
Till there ain't nothing left worth taking away from me--e

       The highway's humming in my head and it's hard to hear
                         
       Would you read my lips if I pulled you near enough?
                                                   
       Could you read my fortune in the bottem of this coffee cup
                                     
       Tell me how to tell when I've had enough

                                               
If morning's a bitch with open arms, 
                                  
Tonight's a girl who's gone to fa-ar

                                              
Whiskey's harder to keep than a woman and it's half as sweet but
                               
Women without whiskey, Women without whiskey
                  
Whiskey's hard to beat
