Whiskey don’t miss you like I do

Verse 1

Neon buzzing in this nowhere bar

Same old stool, same old scars

Bartender knows what I’ll say

“Leave the bottle, I’ll be okay”

Your song’s playing on that old jukebox

Every word just hits like rocks

Everybody here thinks I’m fine

But they don’t see you on my mind

Pre-Chorus

I tried moving on like you told me to

But some things just don’t work like that

Chorus

This whiskey burns but it don’t break through

The way your goodbye still cuts me in two

I can drown these nights in a hundred proof

But the truth is the truth

Every drink just makes it clear

Your memory’s stronger than this beer

Yeah the bottle tries, but it’s no use

Whiskey don’t miss you like I do

Verse 2

Your boots ain’t sitting by the door

Your laugh ain’t echoing anymore

Truck ride home feels twice as long

With the silence where you belong

Your picture’s still up on the dash

I keep saying I’ll take it back

But something in me just can’t

Let go of what we had

Pre-Chorus

I keep chasing that last goodbye

But it’s always one more round away

Chorus

This whiskey burns but it don’t break through

The way your goodbye still cuts me in two

I can drown these nights in a hundred proof

But the truth is the truth

Every drink just makes it clear

Your memory’s stronger than this beer

Yeah the bottle tries, but it’s no use

Whiskey don’t miss you like I do

Bridge

Maybe someday this barstool pain

Won’t be calling out your name

But tonight it’s pouring strong

And you’re still the reason I’m holding on

Final Chorus

This whiskey burns but it don’t break through

Girl I’m still stuck on loving you

Every shot just proves it’s true

Whiskey don’t miss you like I do
