Verse 1. 
C                Am     C       F        G       C 
You ain't never fell as far as when you fall in love 
                                            D              G 
Accept the fall you take when you've been loved then given up 
C                     Am        C     F      G       C  
When you've had your heart and soul rubbed into the dirt 
                                         G             C       F 
An 80 proof bottle of tear stopper will take away the hurt 


[Refrão]
           C 
Give me an 80 proof bottle of tear stopper 
     F  
And I'll start feelin' I've forgot her 
C                       Am      C   F   G 
Get a little loose and lose her memory 
    C      
And I won't think I'm close to dying 
F    
Cause its dries up all my cryin' 
C                      Am      C 
An 80 proof bottle of tear stopper 
F       G        C 
Always sets me free 
 
(Repeat Intro) 
 
Verse 2. 
C              Am     C        F          G         C 
It ain't easy losin' love although it's turned out bad 
                                    D                 G 
All at once you're turning off old feelings you once had 
C                  Am     C     F        G      C 
But I've found a helpin' hand right here in my hand 
                                         G              C     F 
An 80 proof bottle of tear stopper will help me take command 
 
(Repeat Chorus x2)
