Misery and Gin  Merle Haggard

Memories and drinks don't mix too well.
[F]Jukebox records don't p[F7]lay those wedding
[Bb]bells.[G] [Gsus4] [G]
[C]Lookin' at the world through the bottom of a
glass,
[C]All I see is a [C7]man who's fading fa[F]st.
[F]Tonight I need that woman again.
[F]What I'd give for my b[F7]aby to just walk i[Bb]n.
[C]Sit down beside me and say: "It's alright.
[C]"Take me home and make s[C7]weet love to me
tonigh[F]t."
Chorus:
[F]But here I am ag[F7]ain, mixin' [Bb]misery and g[Gm]in.
Sittin' with [Gm7]all my friends and [C]talkin' to
mys[F]elf.
[Bb]I look like I'm havin' a g[A7]ood time but any
[Dm]foo[Dm/C]ool can t[Bb]ell,
[F]That this Honky Tonk H[F]eaven really makes ya'
[Bb]feee[C]el like hel[F]l.
[F]I light a lonely woman's cigarette,
[F]We both start talkin' 'bout [F7]what we want to
[Bb]forget.[G] [Gsus4] [G]
[C]Her life story and mine are the same.
[C]We both lost someone and only [C7]have ourselves
to blam[F]e.
Chorus
[F]But here I am aga[F7]in, mixin' [Bb]misery and g[Gm]in.
Sittin' with a[Gm7]ll my friends and [C]talkin' to
mysel[F]f.
[Bb]I look like I'm havin' a [A7]good time but any
[Dm]fooo[Dm/C]ol can tell,
[F]That this Honky Tonk H[F]eaven really makes ya'
[Bb]feeee[C]l like hel[F]l.
notes: On the Bb before the G gsus4 G do a walk down from Bb to G starting on the D string ( Bb A Ab G ).
On the F chord at the end of each verse and each chorus do a walk up and down on the g string ( A Bb B C B Bb) then B string (D)
For tabs it would be: Before G Gsus4 G
