Verse 1
[C]I used to spend my [F]nights in a [C]bar room
[C]Liquor was the only friend I [G]knew

and you brought me back from [G]being too far [C]gone
Chorus
[C]You're as smoo [F]ooth as Tennessee [C]whiskey
You're as sweet as straw berry[G] wine
You're as[C] warm as a [C7]glass of [F]brandy
and I stay[C] stoned on your [G]love all the [C]time
Verse 2
[C]I looked for love in [F]all the wrong [C]places
found the bottom of the bottle was always[G] dry
but when [C]you poured out your love [F]I didn't [C]waste it
cause there's nothing like your [G]love to get me [C]high
Repeat chorus to end
