Intro: C  G  C  G  F   G 

Verso 1: 
         C              G 
We can fight the fight all damn night 
            Am 
But in the morning light 
     C                F 
The lies reveal the truth 
                  G 
Yeah, the sober truth 

    C          G 
We wake up to reality 
     Am                  G 
And play the blame game ruthlessly 

          F 
Like it woulda turned out different 
              Dm                G 
If we woulda stopped at one or two 

 
 G                      C 
But don't blame it on whiskey 
          Em 
No, this ain't about a drink 
          F        C 
Don't let alcohol take the fall 
    Dm                    G 
For all these thoughts I think 

 G                     C 
Let's get down to the bottom 
                  Em 
And not just the bottom of the glass 
       F                 C 
This heartbreak train's pickin' up steam 
           Dm               G 
And we're standin' on the track 

 G                       F 
Yeah, I can blame it on you 
                       G 
Or you can blame it on me 
                        C     G  C 
But don't blame it on whiskey 


Ponte:
    C                Em 
So here we are, and there it is 
      Am                G 
This line we're leanin' up against 
            F        C             Dm 
Wonderin' which way   we're gonna fall 
     F               C                G 
And how we're gonna answer that last call 


 
 G                      C 
But don't blame it on whiskey 
          Em 
No, this ain't about a drink 
           F       C 
Don't let alcohol take the fall 
    Dm                     G 
For all these thoughts I think 

 G                     C 
Let's get down to the bottom 
                  Em 
And not just the bottom of the glass 
      F                  C 
This heartbreak train's pickin' up steam 
           Dm               G 
And we're standin' on the track 

 G                       F 
Yeah, I can blame it on you 
                       G 
Or you can blame it on me 
 G 
But don't blame it on ... 


Pós-Refrão
 Em                F 
Whiskey might be strong 
        Em               F                   G   G 
But it ain't got nothin' on what's goin' on here
