If Drinking Don't Kill Me by George Jones

D
The bars are all closed
It’s four in the morning
Must have shut’em all down
                                A
By the shape that I’m in
              D
I lay my head on the wheel
And the horn begins honking
The whole neighborhood knows
               A                  D
That I’m home drunk again
Chorus:
                              G   D
And if drinking don’t kill me
                   A
Her memory will
                                 G
I can’t hold out much longer
                        D
The way that I feel
                                   G  D
With the blood from my body
                                G
I could start my own still
                              D
And if drinking don’t kill me
       A           D     
Her memory will
                D
These will old bones they move slow
But so sure of their footsteps
                                                         A
As I trip on the floor and lightly touch down
        D
Lord it’s been ten bottles since I tried to forget her
                                                 A                   D
But the memory still lingers lying here on the ground
