C                F
Here I am alone, strumming this guitar,
   G                             C**              G**
at home on a Friday night when I oughta be at the bar.
C                       F
I told all my friends I needed time to think
        G                         C**                G**
but the truth of it is think I’ll just stay here and drink.

                C        C/E           Am               F
'Cause you’re a memory I can’t stop, a heartache on the jukebox,
  C               C/E              Am                G
a hurting feeling when that needle drops down on the groove.
           C                C/E             Am               F
You're the lead even in the story, you were good but no good for me,
Am            G             F                 C/E
mama tried to warn me you’d break my heart in two.
      F                     G          (C)

If the whiskey in this bottle don’t let me down
      G                         C**           G**
might not get over you but I’ll gain a little ground.
C                         F
Somehow it feels like the highs were worth the lows,
  G                               C**                 G**
I know I might sound crazy, guess that’s the way love goes.

Yeah, a good one, a sad one,   wish I had you back one,
        Am                    G                         F          F
when he sang those heartbroke songs sure sounds like he had one.
