By David Allan Coe
11/10/2011
Capo 1
EC#m
Drunk and totally drained
EA
On the verge of going crazy, on the edge of insane
AmEF#m
I know you'd prayed I'd make it but I never pulled through
BE
I gave up on going on girl just like I gave up on you
Chorus 1:
AE
But don't you cry darlin'. Though it's a cryin' shame.
BEE7
I was hooked on that whiskey so bad, I didn't know my name
AEF#m
When I die, don't cry darlin', well it's not you're fault
EABE
I was stealin' time from the devil and I just got caught
EC#m
You know Hon, David left you so long ago
EA
He didn't want to darlin, aw but his dyin words told you so
Am
But that strong stuff, aww, it was always his weakness
EF#m
But hell, any man can be a fool
B
And I know that he was so ashamed and sorry
E
For all those bad things that he did to you
Chorus 2:
But don't you cry darlin'. Though it's a cryin' shame.
I was hooked on that whiskey so bad, I didn't know my name
When I die, don't cry darlin', well it's not you're fault
I was stealin' time from the devil and I just got caught
Chorus 3:
Don't you cry darlin'. though it's a cryin' shame
I was hooked on that bottle so bad, I didn't know my name ...fade
