        E                B   F# G#m
I can still shut down a party
       E         B    F# G#m
I can hang with anybody
              E     B              F#       G#m
I can drink whiskey and red wine, champagne all
night
         E                 B             F#
Little Scotch on the rocks and I'm fine, I'm fine

Chorus:
                    E       B          F#
But when I taste tequila, baby I still see ya
        G#m                       E
Cutting up the floor in a sorority t-shirt,
     B                     F#
the same one you wore when we were
G#m              E   B
Sky high in Colorado, your lips
                     F#
pressed against the bottle
         G#m                          E
Swearing on a Bible, baby, I'd never leave ya,
      B              F#    G#m
I remember how bad I need ya
                E          B               F# G#m
When I taste tequila (when I, when I, when I)
                E          B               F# G#m
When I taste tequila (when I, when I, when I)

I can kiss somebody brand new
And not even think about you
I can show up to the same bar
Hear the same songs in my car
Baby, your memory, it only hits me this hard

Chorus:
When I taste tequila
Baby, I still see ya
Cuttin' up the floor in a sorority T-shirt
The same one you wore when we were
Sky high in Colorado, your lips pressed against
the bottle
Swearing on a Bible, baby, I'd never leave ya
I remember how bad I need ya (Need ya)
When I taste tequila (When I, when I, when I)
When I taste tequila (When I, when I, when I)

E
I ain't even drunk, I ain't even drunk,
          G#m
and I'm thinking
E
How I need your love, how I need your love,
         F#
yeah it sinks in

Chorus:
When I taste tequila
Baby, I still see ya
Sorority T-shirt
The same one you wore when we were
Sky high in Colorado,
your lips pressed against the bottle
Swearing on a Bible, baby, I'd never leave ya
I remember how bad I need ya (Need ya)
When I taste tequila (When I, when I, when I)
When I taste tequila, oh (When I, when I, when I)
When I taste tequila, oh (When I, when I, when I)
When I taste tequila (When I, when I, when I)
Ooh
