Plain Old Whiskey Guitar Chords Dan Andriano in the Emergency Room

F  A7  Dm     A#     C

[Verse 1]

F              A7           Dm
I took a breath and held it in
A#                         C
For so long that I passed out
F           A7       Dm
When I woke, I was older than
A#                              C
Half the bricks that line this town

Gm                      C
Used to paint with just black and white
F            A7           Dm
While I slept, the colors fell
A#                               C
It's all so loud, so very bright
                           F       A#  C
Is this real? I just can't tell

[Chorus]

F               Gm
No sir, I don't want it anymore
C                              F
I've waited hours for you, but now I've gotta go
F               Gm
I'm no more the kind to sit and wait
        C                                F
But I'm glad I got to bathe here in your punch bowl
A7         A#                      C
All I need now, some plain old whiskey
              F  Fmaj9/E
To wash my soul

F  A7  Dm     A#     C


[Verse 2]

F                 A7              Dm
Woke up and pinched myself three times
A#                             C
Not much changed except these bruises on my thighs
F              A7              Dm
Walked down toward the giant mirror
A#                      C
What's this unfamiliar smile?

Gm                     C
I used to wait for someone to come
F               A7                Dm
And take the weights right off of me
A#                          C
Instead of just getting stronger
                           F       A#  C
I've forgotten how to dream

[Chorus]

F               Gm
No sir, I don't want it anymore
C                              F
I've waited hours for you, but now I've gotta go
F               Gm
I'm no more the kind to sit and wait
        C                                F
But I'm glad I got to bathe here in your punch bowl
A7         A#                      C
All I need now, some plain old whiskey
              F
To wash my soul
