Whiskey Lullaby

[00:02.83] "Whiskey Lullaby"

[00:10.86] (feat. Alison Krauss)

[00:36.25] I'll love you forever

[00:37.53] You come home

[00:38.79] Then we will start our family

[00:41.54] La,la,la,la,la,la,la

[00:44.55] La,la,la,la,la,la,la

[00:48.56] Hey men

[00:49.57] You're home

[00:50.61] Son hey this is your stop

[01:00.90] You head home son

[01:02.68] We appreciate what you did

[01:04.94] We did what we had to

[01:07.69] Is there a Mrs

[01:10.21] It's been a while since I've been home

[01:12.22] Go start your life son

[01:17.49] Thanks...

[01:42.30] You come home

[01:43.32] Then we will start our family...

[02:33.95] She put him out, like the burnin' end of a midnight cigarette

[02:43.47] She broke his heart, he spent his whole life tryin' to forget

[02:54.00] We watched him drink his pain away a little at a time

[03:00.52] But he never could get drunk enough to get her off his mind

[03:06.30] Until the night

[03:09.55] He put that bottle to his head and pulled the trigger

[03:16.83] And finally drank away her memory

[03:23.35] Life is short, but this time it was bigger

[03:29.61] Than the strength he had to get up off his knees

[03:36.12] We found him with his face down in the pillow

[03:42.39] With a note that said, "I'll love her 'til I die"

[03:49.16] And when we buried him beneath the willow

[03:55.67] The angels sang a whiskey lullaby

[03:59.46] La, la, la, la, la, la, la

[04:12.51] La, la, la, la, la, la, la

[04:17.27] The rumors flew, but nobody knew how much she blamed herself

[04:26.80] For years and years she tried to hide the whiskey on her breath

[04:37.33] She finally drank her pain away a little at a time

[04:43.59] But she never could get drunk enough to get him off her mind

[04:49.61] Until the night

[04:52.86] She put that bottle to her head and pulled the trigger

[05:00.15] And finally drank away his memory

[05:06.67] Life is short, but this time it was bigger

[05:12.68] Than the strength she had to get up off her knees

[05:19.45] We found her with her face down in the pillow

[05:25.97] Clinging to his picture for dear life

[05:32.49] We laid her next to him beneath the willow

[05:38.50] While the angels sang a whiskey lullaby

[05:42.76] La, la, la, la, la, la, la

[06:31.41] La, la, la, la, la, la, la
