Whiskey on My Mind by Homemade Shine

Whiskey on My Mind

Verse 1:
The neon sign flickers, my boots hit the floor
Another Friday night, but it feels like before
The jukebox is playing that same old tune
I’m staring at a glass, thinking ‘bout you

Pre-Chorus:
I swear I’ll quit tomorrow, I always say that line
But tonight I’m drowning in another glass of time

Chorus:
I got whiskey on my mind, and tears in my eyes
Every sip reminds me of those long goodbye nights
I chase the burn, try to numb the pain
But your memory pours like rain
Yeah, I got whiskey on my mind

Verse 2:
Your picture’s still smiling from the old frame on the wall
I hear your laughter echoing down this smoky hall
The bartender knows my story without a word
He pours another round, it’s the only truth I’ve heard

Pre-Chorus:
I thought I could forget you, I really did try
But this amber river keeps dragging me by

Bridge:
Maybe tomorrow the sun will shine
Maybe the bottle won’t feel so kind
But tonight I’m lost in your shadow,
Dancing with ghosts only I know

Verse 3:
I’ve seen lovers come and go, and stories fade away
But the taste of you lingers like yesterday
I tip my hat to the empty chairs, toast the nights we had
And I swallow down the sorrow, though it makes me mad

Outro:
So I’ll sit right here where the lights are low
Raise my glass to the love I’ll never let go
‘Cause every drop is a memory, every glass a sign
I can’t forget you—I got whiskey on my mind
