Whiskey On The Wound Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[G][F][C][G][F][C][G]

[Verse 1]
He was [G]strong
and of sound [D]mind
'Til the [C]day he crossed the [G]line
Between an east Kentucky [C]girl and his [G]wife
In his heart there wasn't [D]room
So they [C]tore his heart in [G]two
And he survived by pouring
[D]whiskey on the [G]wound

[Verse 2]
An[Em]other faithless [G]heart
Locked in[C]side a neon [G]tomb
[F]Hiding in the [G]dark and
Pouring [D]whiskey on the
[G]wound
[F][C][G]

[Verse 3]
[F]
[C]Well the [G]girl was just [D]the first
In a [C]string of bad to [G]worse
Yet the bourbon seems to
[C]deaden all [G]that hurts
But closin' time comes
way too [D]soon
He can't [C]abide a cold bed[G]room
So he survives by pouring
[D]whiskey on the [G]wound

[Verse 4]
An[Em]other faithless [G]heart
Locked in[C]side a neon [G]tomb
[F]Hiding in the [G]dark and
Pouring [D]whiskey on
[G]the wound
[Em][G]

[Verse 5]
[Em]
By to[G]morrow he'll be [D]gone
And they'll [C]say he left [G]alone
But that old bar stool [C]won't
be empty [G]long
'Cause some other hopeless [D]fool
Trying [C]to escape [G]the truth
Will sit right down
And pour some [D]whiskey on the [G]wound

[Verse 6]
Now it's an[Em]other faithless [G]heart
Locked [C]in side a neon [G]tomb
[F]Hiding in the [G]dark and
Pouring [D]whis[A] ke[C#dim]y[Bm]

[Outro 1]
