[Chorus]
N.C.                G      A7             D
Jack Daniels if you please   knock me to my knees
                G                     A7
You're the only friend there has ever been
               D
That didn't do me wrong
N.C.                 G     A7             D
Jack Daniels if you please   knock me to my knees
                  G                        A7
You can kill this pain that's driving me insane
                D
Since my baby's gone

[Verse 1]                 
N.C.           G       A7              D
Cigarettes and whiskey   calm my shaking hands
              G      A7             D
I just lost a lover     to a one night stand
               C   G                    D
Something tempora--ry too late I had to learn
                 G                         A7
Someone from her past who said it couldn't last
                      D
A bridge she couldn't burn
 
[Chorus]
N.C.                G      A7             D
Jack Daniels if you please   knock me to my knees
                G                     A7
You're the only friend there has ever been
               D
That didn't do me wrong
N.C.                 G     A7             D
Jack Daniels if you please   knock me to my knees
                  G                        A7
You can kill this pain that's driving me insane
                D
Since my baby's gone

[Verse 2]                 
N.C.          G      A7                  D
Promises were broken    dreams were left to die
                 G      A7                  D
Empty words were spoken    tears were in our eyes
               C   G                        D
Something tempora--ry those tears will fade away
                G                   A7
Do the best you can to help me understand
                        D
These games that people play

[Chorus]
N.C.                G      A7             D
Jack Daniels if you please   knock me to my knees
                G                     A7
You're the only friend there has ever been
               D
That didn't do me wrong
N.C.                 G     A7             D
Jack Daniels if you please   knock me to my knees
                  G                        A7
You can kill this pain that's driving me insane
                D
Since my baby's gone

[Outro]
                  G                        A7
You can kill this pain that's driving me insane
                D
Since my baby's gone
