E (ring Out)............0,2,4
 The bars are all closed
     A           E
It's four in the morning

Must have shut'em all down
 	              B7
By the shape that I'm in
 	 E
I lay my head 	on the wheel
        A           E
And the horn begins honking

The whole neighborhood knows
 	 B7	    E     Riff
That I'm home drunk again

Chorus:
        0    2   4     A    E
 And if drinking don't kill me
           B7
Her memory will
 	0    2   4    A    E
I can't hold out much lon..ger
               B7
The way that I feel
 	 0     2    4  A   E
With the blood from my bo..dy
 	             A   (Riff2)
I could start my own still
       0    2   4     A    E
And if drinking don't kill me
      B7    E
Her mem	ory will

A,E B7 E

(No Chords)                        0,2,4
These will old bones they move slow
       A             E
But so sure of their footsteps
 	                                 B7
As I trip on the floor and lightly touch down
 	  E                        A        E
Lord it's been ten bottles since I tried to forget her
 		             B7                E      (riff)
But the memory still lingers lying here on the ground
