Jay Webb - Whiskey Don’t Cheat

Capo: 1st fret

[Intro]
Em7 Cadd9 G D
Aw, honey

Em7 Cadd9 G D

[Pre-Chorus]
Em7 Cadd9
We stood there in that empty house
G D
And you were long gone I had no doubt
Em7 Cadd9 G
When you said boy, it’s me or the alcohol

[Chorus]
D Em7
I said the whiskey don’t cheat
Cadd9
And the beer don’t hurt me
G D
Cigarettes don’t tell made up stories (stories0

Em7 Cadd9 G
But they damn sure drown my pain when you dooo

D Em7
I said the whiskey don’t cheat
Cadd9
And the beer don’t hurt me
G
And they don’t ever leave
D
They gonna be there in the morning (morning)

Em7 Cadd9 G D
Yea, they don’t ever walk a-way like you used tooo

[Verse]
Em7 Cadd9 G D
Another night where I see your name light up my phone
Em7 Cadd9 G D
Can’t tell if it’s the pain you left or if I’m just half stoned

Em7 Cadd9
Well tell me why we gotta go around and around
G D
When the whiskey only hurts while it’s going down
Em7 Cadd9 G
You said all I care about is the sex and the alcohol
D
You ain’t wrong

[Pre-Chorus]
Em7 Cadd9
We stood there in that empty house
G D
And you were long gone I had no doubt
Em7 Cadd9 G
When you said boy, it’s me or the alcohol

[Chorus]
D Em7
I said the whiskey don’t cheat
Cadd9
And the beer don’t hurt me
G D
Cigarettes don’t tell made up stories (stories0

Em7 Cadd9 G
But they damn sure drown my pain when you dooo

D Em7
I said the whiskey don’t cheat
Cadd9
And the beer don’t hurt me
G
And they don’t ever leave
D
They gonna be there in the morning (morning)

Em7 Cadd9 G D
Yea, they don’t ever walk a-way like you used tooo

[Verse]
Em7 Cadd9 G D
The only thing you left for me is a broken dream
Em7 Cadd9 G D
A big house on a hill couple kids and a family
Em7 Cadd9
Well tell your friends go ahead and believe
G D
What they wanna believe yeah

Em7 Cadd9 G D
I guess what’s meant to be is meant to be

[Pre-Chorus]
Em7 Cadd9
We stood there in that empty house
G D
And you were long gone I had no doubt
Em7 Cadd9 G
When you said boy, it’s me or the alcohol
