Whiskey Chaser

I know when she’s leaving, I can tell by what she wrote
I get the letter with no laughing and no smiling I know
Time goes by and I tell my friends her memory is fading
But I don’t get no sleep at night, who is it I think I’m kidding

One by one and two by two and three by three and four by four
These other women cannot hold me anymore
One by one and two by two and three by three and four by four
Where is the girl that you love, do not say you can erase her
When you can’t even dream her up
Just give me my whiskey chaser

time goes by, and I wonder if I’m living or if I’m dying
I drank a fifth to end my life but I just go on surviving

One by one and two by two and three by three and four by four
This rugged bible does not comfort anymore
One by one and two by two and three by three and four by four
Where is the girl that you love, do not say you can live without her
What the hell do you know of love
Just give me my whiskey chaser

Now it’s been a couple years, I don’t think that she’s returning
Like the two times before that, well I guess she must be learning

One by one and two by two and three by three and four by four
This lonely guitar cannot help me anymore
One by one and two by two and three by three and four by four
Where is the girl that you love, do not say you can replace her
I’ll tell you what, when it’s all too much to bear
You just replace that whiskey chaser
