Whiskey Bottle (Live Acoustic Version)

[Verse 1]

Persuaded, paraded, inebriated, in doubt

Still aware of everything life carries on without

'Cause there's one too many faces with dollar sign smiles

I gotta find the shortest path to the bar for a while

[Chorus]

A long way from happiness

In a three-hour-away town

Whiskey bottle over Jesus

Not forever, but just for now

Well, not forever, but just for now

[Verse 2]

Well, there's a trouble around, it's never far away

The same trouble's been around for a life and a day

Well, I can't forget the sound 'cause it's here to stay

The sound of people chasing money and money getting away

[Chorus]

A long way from happiness

In a three-hour-away town

Whiskey bottle over Jesus

Not forever, but just for now

Well, not forever, but just for now

[Verse 3]

Well, in between the dirt and disgust there must be

Some air to breathe and something to believe

Well, "Liquor and Guns" the sign says quite plain

Somehow life goes on in a place so insane

[Chorus]

A long way from happiness

In a three-hour-away town

Whiskey bottle over Jesus

Not forever, but just for now

Well, not forever, but just for now
