If Drinkin Dont Kill Me Her Memory Will

George Jones


Tom: C

C
 The bars are all closed

It's four in the morning

Must have shut'em all down
        G
By the shape that I'm in                 
        C
I lay my head   on the wheel

And the horn begins honking

The whole neighborhood knows
        G       C
That I'm home d runk again               

Chorus:
        F       C
And if drinking don't kill me            
        G
Her memory will          
        F
I can't hold out much longer             
        C
The way that I feel              
        F       C
With the blood from my body                      
        F
I could start my own still               
        C
And if drinking don't kill me    
        G       C
Her mem ory will         
        C
These will old b        ones they move slow

But so sure of their footsteps
        G
As I trip on the floor and lightly touch down                    
        C
Lord it'        s been ten bottles since I tried to forget her
        G       C
But the memory still lingers lying here on the gr       ound
