DHemingway's whiskey
Awarm and smooth and mean
BmEven when it burns, it ll Galways finish clean
He didnt Dlike it watered down, took it Astraight up and neat
It was Bmbad enough for him, you know its Gbad enough for me
DHemingway's whiskey   A   Bm   G
DAh, its tough out there, a good Amuse is hard to find
Livin Bmone word to the next, Gone line at a time
Theres Dmore to life than whiskey, there's Amore to words than rhyme
BmSometimes nothing works, Gsometimes nothing shine
Like DHemingway's whiskey
A  Bm  G  D  A  Bm  G
[Bridge]
ASail away, sail away, Gthree sheets to the wind
EmLive hard, die hard, Athis ones for him
DHemingway's whiskey, Awarm and smooth and mean
BmEven when it burns, it'll Galways finish clean
He didnt Dlike it watered down, took it Astraight up and neat
It was Bmbad enough for him, you know it's Gbad enough for me
DHemingway's whiskey   A   Bm   G
DHemingway's whiskey   A   Bm   G
DHemingway's whiskey   A   Bm   G
