Chocolate Milk & Whiskey

Mercy Bell


Tom: G

I ain't got much in my fridge

Except chocolate milk and whiskey

And I've only got 'em

'Cause you brought 'em over

                     D
We ended up singing Whitney all night
G             C                G
Then we went, walked through a drive-through
           C              G
Bought burritos for each hand
  C                           G
I guess you could say, as my granddaddy said
           Em                 D
That I've busted up my give-a-damn
      C             G
And I know that I'm broke
       Em D         C
And I know that I'm blue
C                      G
These are the days that I will remember
Em           D          G
Remind me to myself be true
G             C          G
You kicked me off of my sofa
          C                         G
I've been crying for three or four days
C
Tore off the cushions
      G
Found dollars and quarters
    Em                       D
And bought us some hard lemonade
G              C         G
Then we went, rescued a buddy
       C                       G
Had a flat on the tire of his van
        C                  G
'Cause laying in bed is a slippery slope
             Em                   D
When you've busted up your give-a-damn
      C             G
And I know that I'm broke
      Em  D         C
And I know that I'm blue
 C                     G
These are the days that I will remember
Em           D           G  C  G
Remind me to myself be true

[Solo] G  C  G
       C  G  Em  D

      Em                         Bm
And I don't want to die beneath fluorescent lighting
C                            G
Looking for a hand to hold, grasping at sheets
    Em                         Bm
The nurse will walk in, take a look at your face
     C                        G     D
Turn up your last dose of morphine
G            C          G
I ain't got much in my fridge
        C                   G
Except chocolate milk and whiskey
      C
Five dollars in quarters
    G
Two Mission burritos
       Em                    D
And a pickup without a back seat
G               C          G
We'll drive on down to the ocean
        C             G
Peeling oranges as we sing
C                     G
Prince and Johnny, Mariah and Dolly
       Em                         D
'Cause life is the damnedest of things
        C             G
And I know that I'm broke
      Em  D         C
And I know that I'm blue
 C                     G
These are the days that I will remember
Em           D
Remind me to myself-
C                     G
These are the days that I will remember
Em           D
Remind me to myself-
C                     G
These are the days that I will remember
Em           D          G
Remind me to myself be true
