Whiskey Fever Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
(I love that one)

[Solo 1]
(Four, three, one, two, three, four)
[E][E][E][E]
[A][A][E][E]
[G][D][E][E]

[Verse 1]
Got a [E]whiskey drinking fever
that I can't not shake
And those girls downtown
are more than I can take
[A]High waisted Rockies
and their sailor's mouths
And the [E]boys in the back
of the bar screamin' loud
[G]Oh, whiskey [D]river, take me [E]home

[Verse 2]
And I [E]smell like cologne and cigarettes
But I ain't found a lady or a bar fight yet
[A]I'll wait around just to stir shit up
That [E]whiskey river flowing ain't ever enough
[G]Oh, whiskey [D]river, take me [E]home

[Verse 3]
'Cause I'm a [E]heavy drinking,
hard hitting good ol' boy
There ain't a man in this county
that can keep me employed
[A]Can't stay sober past eleven AM
My [E]breath smells like my regrets again
[G]Oh, whiskey [D]river, take me [E]home

[Verse 4]
I had a [E]woman in Wisconsin,
and a woman in Maine
But they told me that
they'd never love a man so insane
I [A]head to Oklahoma
with the flask and the comb
Do my [E]best to find another place I can roam
[G]Oh, whiskey [D]river, take me [E]home

[Verse 5]
There was [E]no one in town
that would give me a ride
So I waited for my heavy drunkenness
to subside
[A]Stole a pick-up truck from a gas station pump
I [E]pray to the Lord for a run of good luck
[G]Oh, whiskey [D]river, take me [E]home

[Solo 2]
[E][E][E][E]
[A][A][E][E]
[G][D][E][E]

[Solo 3]
[E][E][E][E]
[A][A][E][E]
[G][D][E][E]

[Verse 6]
And I was [E]four hundred miles
down Highway ten
All of a sudden I was arrested again
They [A]told me eight years in the county pen
Or eight [E]years in the army killing evil men
[G]Oh, whiskey [D]river, take me [E]home

[Verse 7]
Now there's [E]sand in my boots,
sand in my eyes
Sand everywhere that sand can hide
[A]How I miss those downtown girls
And that [E]whiskey river that ruined my world
[G]Oh, Uncle [D]Sam, I wanna [E]go home

[Verse 8]
I had a [E]whiskey drinking fever
that I could not shake
And those girls downtown
were more than I could take
Their [A]high waisted Rockies
and their sailor's mouth
[E]Boys in the back of the bar screaming loud
[G]Oh, whiskey [D]river, take me [E]home
[G]Oh, whiskey [D]river, I wanna go [E]home
