{Verse 1]
CI wake up in the morning, just to Fface another dCay
COf wishing things had turned out in an Goh so different G7way
CI think about the C7good times and the Flife that we once had
CAnd I wonder what made our love wither and go Cbad.
[Verse 2]
CI’ll never know whose fault it waFs, maybe yours Cor maybe mine
CIt might have been the two of us, and juGst a love that G7had it’s time.
CBut sitting here alone I know it doesFn’t matter now.
CYou’re gone and I’m just trying to Gget along somCehow
[Chorus]
(But there’s) Fa place I find some comfort, where I Cdon’t feel any pain
A Gplace I can foG7rget the past that’s Cdriving me iC7nsane
So Fwrap me in your golden glow and Chelp me find my Fway
CPlease, come on Gwhisky, take me FhomCe.
[Verse 3]
CI poured myself drink that night, Fthinking mayCbe it would help
CMake me feel a little better, ease the hGeartache that I fG7elt
COne drink becaC7me too many, now IF’ve finally hit the floor
CAnd I don’t want to live without Gmy whisky any mCore.
[Chorus]
(Cause there’s) Fa place I find some comfort, wheCre I don’t feel any pain
A Gplace I can foG7rget the past that’s Cdriving me iC7nsane
So Fwrap me in your golden glow and Chelp me find my Fway
CPlease, come on Gwhisky, take me FhomCe.
