             G
If I were a rock instead of a rolling stone
Maybe I'd be sober
And you wouldn't be so gone
                   C
But I ain't where you are,
I'm still sitting at the same bar
                  D
Mm, that brought you to me
and helped me break your heart

Chorus:
                       C
Ooh, but if you were whiskey
    D                                        C
It looks like I'd still have you right here with me
     D                                  C
And I'd be getting a different kind of tipsy
            D                         D#dim
Instead of sittin' here sippin' number seven
          Em
all night long
                       C
Mm, but if you were whiskey,
                      D
I'd still be holdin' you
                       G C
We'd still be going strong

And if it weren't the Devil
Whisperin' in my ear
Lord knows my angel
Might not have disappeared
And I guess that's my fault
There ain't no one else to blame
I'm either half-way drunk or all the way insane

Chorus:
Yeah, but if you were whiskey
It looks like I'd still have right here with me
And I'd be getting a different kind of tipsy
Instead of sittin' here sippin' number
seven all night long
Mm, but if you were whiskey
I'd still be holdin' you
And we'd still be going strong
Yeah, if you were whiskey

     Am
I'd get up on that wagon
         Bm
Set the bottle down today
    C
Oh, I ain't done it yet
    D
And I ain't proud to say

Chorus:
If you were whiskey
Ooh, if you were whiskey
It looks like I'd still have you right here with me
And I'd be a whole new kind of tipsy
Instead of sittin' here sippin' number
seven all night long, mm, mm
Oh, if you were whiskey
I'd still be holdin' you
And we'd still be going strong
