          C
There's a barstool downtown
Am
With my name on it
           F
There's a party crowd promising a good time
G
But I ain't goin'
C
Used to be I'd be there
Am
Throwin' a couple down
        F
But now one leads to two and two leads to four
       G
And before I know it I'm thinkin' about

Chorus:
  C
Standing at the end of the drive
      Am
Your tail lights fading in to the night
    F
Screaming your name in the pouring down rain
 G
Watching you leave us behind
   C
So I don't go out on the town
         Am
All the whiskey I had I poured out
    F
My heart needs time to get over you and me
G                              C
And that's where I go when I drink

Sometimes I feel like I could have a few
But I know better your memory's no quitter
And every time I do, I'm...

Chorus

One drop
      G
You flood my mind
      F            G
Like river of goodbye

Chorus:
Standing at the end of the drive
Your tail lights fading into the night
Screaming your name in pouring down rain
Watching you leave us behind
So I don't go out on the town
All the whiskey I had, I poured out
My heart needs time to get over you and me
And that's where I go when I drink

When I drink
That's where I go when I drink
