[Em] [G]
[Am]
[D] [G] We were really excited to come play E-Town today [Am] and I got to talk to Helen [C] over the
phone before we got here and we [F] got all organized about [C] the E-Towns playing [Am] Waltz About Whiskey
with us [G] so we were excited [C] to just see how it was all going to unfold when we got here.
[F] That song has such a classic sort of [C] country vibe and [Dm] the way we recorded it on our [C] record
is with basically all the instruments [Am] that they played with us tonight, [D]
drums and pedal
steel and [G] piano and so it seemed like the perfect opportunity to [Am] just flesh that one
out again and really just sit [C] back in it and let it be [F] a country song [C] which is what it
needs [G] to be.
[Am]
[G] You know Helen singing the third part on that, [Cm] we've never really sang that with anyone else
before [C] so it just fit in there really well so it [Am] was really fun to get to play [F] that song that way.
[Dm] It was a treat for us.

[G]
[F] [Dm] [C] [Gm]

[F] [C] Once the getting was good, [Am] but [F] now the getting's got [C] gone.
[G] So I'm going downtown [F] just to tie [Dm] [C] one on.
I'm okay [Am] since I've been [F] going down [C] by the hour.
And I'm as [Am] blue [G] as the night is [C] long.
So [F] won't someone [C] dance with me.
[Dm] Do a waltz [C] about whiskey [G] [Am]
and turn [D] the sad songs into [G] lullabies.
Oh [Am] I don't mean much [C] or nothing except [F] for all [C] your loving.
[Am] And a waltz about [G] whiskey on [C] ice.
[Am] [F] [C]
[Am] [G]
[C] One quarter should [F] do.
[C] Number 832.
A little [G] truth from the jukebox [C] should make it alright.
And as the booze sets [Am] in, I'm [F] getting high [C] again.
[Am] Do a waltz [G] about whiskey [C] on ice.
So [F] won't someone dance [C] with me.
Do [Dm] a [C] waltz about whiskey [Am] and turn the [D] sad songs into [G] lullabies.
Oh I [Am] don't mean [C] much or nothing except [F] for all [C] your loving.
[Am] And a waltz [G] about whiskey [C] on ice.

[F] [C]
[Am] [F]
[C] [Am] [G]
[C]
[D] Well I remember [G] the night she [Am] sat down beside me.
She [F] cried love was a ring [C] that won't end.
Well I was [G]
[A] handed [G] a light.
[E] Cause now [Am] the [C] only thing [Em] I know [F] of a ring.
[C] Is a circle that my [G] glass, it leaves [C] behind.
So [F] won't someone [C] dance with me.
[Dm] Do a waltz [C] about whiskey [Am] and turn the [D] sad songs into [G] lullabies.
[Am] Oh I don't mean [C] much or nothing except [F] for all [C] your loving.
[G] [Am] And a waltz [G] about whiskey on [F] ice.
[C] [Dm] [B] [C]
[N] The E-Tones everybody.
[E] [Eb]
[F]
[Dm] Make up, [Bb] make [Dm] up, [C] make up.
[Bb]
[Dm] I shouldn't [Bb] be so [Dm] hard.
[C]
That [Bb] should my [F] face, [Am] heart, [Bb] have to be [F] sad.
