Hotel Whiskey

E
I was born a ramblin' man
           A           E
With swamp water on my hand
Daddy died young and I had to help 
          B7
momma get by
     E
So I learned how to sing those songs
                 A          E
I learned how to honky-tonk mo^an
                          B7       
And learned to sleep in a different
           E
 bed every night.

E
Sometimes we slept in the car
        A                          
Lots of times we slept some old in 
  E
a bar
Well then we got a bus and we, 
                            B7
thought we were flyin' real high
        E
But the best place I ever stayed
               A                   
Were I really learned how sing and 
   E
to play
                           B7      
I got the good times on my mind at 
          E
the Hotel Whiskey.

Chorus:
       E    G  A  Bb   B7      
Lord I want to go back down 
            E
there to Hotel Whiskey
Oh I wanna drink and dance and watch
                           B7
 the ladies prance and get frisky
(Yes I do)
       E
No I'm not gonna worry about drivin'
 a car
        A
I'll go up and get a room and bring 
my old guitar
          E                B7     
I got the good times on my mind 
                      E
down there at the Hotel Whiskey.

          E
I'm not a kid anymore
         A                 E
But this ain't no mid-life crisis
B7
Because a whiskey and women have 
always been my vices
          E
I'm gonna buy a drink and take it to
 the band
    A
And talk to that gal that's got my 
heart in her hand
          E                B7     
I got the good times on my mind at
           E
 the Hotel Whiskey.

Chorus2:
       E    G  A  Bb   B7      
Lord I want to go back down to 
      E
Hotel Whiskey
I'm gonna drink and dance and watch 
                         B7
the women prance and get frisky (Yes
 in deed)
       E
No I'm not gonna worry about drivin'
 a car
        A                          
I got a bottle and a room and my 
  E
old guitar
          E                B7     
I got the good times on my mind 
                E
down at the Hotel Whiskey.


(What do you say Clint?)
E
Hank before I die I wanna ramble on
    A
And go with you and listen to them 
songs
          E                B7
I got the good times on my mind
              A                    
Ya well let's blow it out one more 
B7
time
           A              B7      
Well Hank, let's go all unwind, 
                E
down at the Hotel Whiskey.
