[Intro]
C G/B C C/B C/A G
[Verse 1]
G G/F# Em C G
Once the gettin' was good, but now the gettin's got gone
D/F# C C/B C/A G
So I'm going downtown just to tie one on
G G/F# Em C G
I'm oak aged and sour, I'm goin' down by the hour
Em D G
and I'm as blue as the night is long.
[Chorus]
C G/B Am G
Won't someone dance with me to a waltz about whiskey
Em A7 D
And turn my sad songs to lullabies
Em G C G
I don't need much of nothin except for all your lovin'
Em D G
And a waltz about whiskey on ice
[Verse 2]
G G/F# Em C G
One quarter should do, number A thirty-two
D/F# C C/B C/A G
a little truth from the jukebox should make it al - right
G G/F# Em C G
and as the booze sets in I'm getting high again
Em D G
to a waltz about whiskey on ice
[Chorus]
C G/B Am G
Won't someone dance with me to a waltz about whiskey
Em A7 D
And turn my sad songs to lullabies
Em G C G
I don't need much of nothin except for all your lovin'
Em D G
And a waltz about whiskey on ice

[Bridge]
A7 A7/E D Em C
I remember the night she sat down beside me, she said love was a
G
ring that won't end
D/F# B7
I was handed a lie
Em G Bm C G D/F# G
Now the only thing I know of a ring is the circle my glass leaves behind
[Chorus]
C G/B Am G
Won't someone dance with me to a waltz about whiskey
Em A7 D
And turn my sad songs to lullabies
Em G C G
I don't need much of nothin except for all your lovin'
Em D C C/B C/A G
And a waltz about whiskey on ice
