REASON WHY I'M DRINKIN'

KEY: C

CHANG THIS DOLLAR FOR ME PLEASE, PLEASE BARTENDER
THERE'S A SONG I'D LIKE TO HEAR IF YOU DON'T MIND
IT'S A TUNE ABOUT A COWBOY AND THE WOMAN THAT JUST LEFT HIM
THAT'S THE REASON WHY I'M DRINKIN' HERE TONIGHT

POUR ME ANOTHER WHISKEY IN A TALL, TALL GLASS
AND EASY ON THE WATER IF YOU DON'T MIND
I'VE GOT A WHOLE LOT OF MEMORIES THAT ID SURE LIKE TO GET RID OF
THAT'S THE REASON WHY I'M DRINKIN' HERE TONIGHT

CHORUS:

THAT'S THE REASON WHY I'M DRINKIN'
EVERYBODY KNOWS THE FEELIN'
HER MEMORY IS JUST TOO STRONG FOR ME TO FIGHT
THERE AIN'T NO KIND OF FEELIN'
LIKE YOUR WOMAN WHEN SHE'S LEAVIN'
THAT'S THE REASON WHY I'M DRINKIN' HERE TONIGHT

SOLO: (TURN AROUND)

BRIDGE:

TONIGHT THIS HONKY TONK FEELS LIKE FREEDOM
YOU CAN'T SEE THE DAMAGE DONE UNDER NEON LIGHT
I'VE GOT A WHISKY CRUTCH TO LEAN ON
AND A JUKE BOX CRYIN' SAD SONGS
THAT'S THE REASON WHY I'M DRINKIN' HERE TONIGHT

CHORUS:

THAT'S THE REASON WHY I'M DRINKIN'
EVERYBODY KNOWS THE FEELIN'
HER MEMORY IS JUST TOO STRONG FOR ME TO FIGHT
THERE AIN'T NO KIND OF FEELIN'
LIKE YOUR WOMAN WHEN SHE'S LEAVIN'
THAT'S THE REASON WHY I'M DRINKIN' HERE TONIGHT

TAG:

THAT'S THE REASON WHY I'M DRINKIN' HERE TONIGHT
