Whiskey Is My Kind Of Lullaby by Johnny Hobo and the Freight Trains


   Whiskey Is My Kind Of Lullaby


Tuning:E A D G B E
Capo:no capo

F* -(mutted and repeat 4 times)
 
 
  Em            C                 G
I was a loner until there were no friends left
Em                 C          G
And before someone offered me drugs
 G
You know I was straight edge
 
  Em         C             G
And everyone quits til you offer them a cigarette
  Em
Before we learn our lesson
      C          G
Lets see how bad things can get
 
F* F         C
   And I'll drink myself to death
          F* F     C
Or at least  I'll drink myself to sleep
F* F              C
   Chain smoke my way through the gaps in between
F       C      F      C
My aspirations and my apathy
 
 Em                        C                G
As we drive past the last exit to home I am waving goodbye
      Em                       C
And I might be sleeping in the ditch tonight
           F           G                          C
But it's alright cause whiskey is my kind of lullaby
 
 Em    C                    G
I was sober all morning til I woke up this afternoon
 Em                  C                  G
And before someone offered me a job you know I was gonna get one soon
 
  Em                             C        G
And everyone in this town sleeps til the calendar collides with June
  Em                    C        G
Before the booze wears off let's take another shot or two
 
 
F* F         C
   And I'll drink myself to death
          F* F     C
Or at least  I'll drink myself to sleep
F* F              C
   Chain smoke my way through the gaps in between
F       C      F      C
My aspirations and my apathy
 
 Em                        C                G
As we drive past the last exit to home I am waving goodbye
      Em                       C
And I might be sleeping in the ditch tonight
           F           G                          C
But it's alright cause whiskey is my kind of lullaby

then just repeat all of that again


I was a loner
Until there were no friends left
And before someone offered me drugs
Ya know, I was straight edge
And everyone's quit 'til
You offer them a cigarette
Before we learn our lesson, lets see
How bad things can get
And I'll drink myself to death or at least
I'll drink myself to sleep
Chain smoke my way through the gaps in between
My aspirations and my apathy
As we drive past
The last exit to home I am waving goodbye, and I
Might be sleeping in the ditch tonight but it's alright
'Cause whiskey is my kind of lullaby!
I was sober all morning
'Til I woke up this afternoon
And before someone offered me a job
Ya know I was gonna get one soon
And everyone in this town sleeps 'til
The calendar collides with June
Before the booze wears off
Let's take another shot or two
And I'll drink myself to death or at least
I'll drink myself to sleep
Chain smoke my way through the gaps in between
My aspirations and my apathy
As we drive past
The last exit to home I am waving goodbye and I
Might be sleeping in the ditch tonight but it's alright
'Cause whiskey is my kind of lullaby!
