About an alcoholic

Lyrics

VS1
I PROMISED MY WIFE AND I PROMISED MY FRIENDS
I PROMISED MYSELF I WOULDN?T SEE YOU AGAIN
BUT HERE WE ARE WITH THE LIGHTS DOWN LOW
WITH NOT MUCH FURTHER TO GO
NOT MUCH FURTHER ?TIL I START TO CRY
NOT MUCH FURTHER ?TIL I TELL YOU GOOD BYE

CHORUS 1
WHISKY ANGELS WON?T YOU LEAVE ME ALONE
YOU?RE NOT WELCOME HERE IN MY HOME
I?VE GOT A GOOD LIFE THAT I?D LIKE TO KEEP
BUT YOU BRING ME TO MY KNEES
WHISKY ANGELS WON?T YOU LEAVE ME ALONE
YOU?RE NOT WELCOME IN MY HOME

VS2
WHEN YOU?RE IN MY PRESENCE, I?M NO MAN AT ALL
YOU MUST TAKE PRIDE IN WATCHING ME FALL
YOU?LL TAKE IT ALL, I?LL HAVE NOTHING TO SHOW
THERE?S NOT MUCH FURTHER TO GO
NOT MUCH FURTHER ?TIL I START TO CRY
NOT MUCH FURTHER ?TIL I TELL YOU GOODBYE

REPEAT CHORUS 1

BRIDGE
I TOLD MY WIFE THAT YOU?RE IN MY PAST
SHE SAID OUR NEXT TIME WOULD BE HER LAST
I NEED HER TO STAY, SHE MAKES ME WHOLE
BUT IT?S YOU THAT HAS MY SOUL

LAST CHORUS
WHISKY ANGELS WON?T YOU LEAVE ME ALONE
YOU?RE NOT WELCOME HERE IN MY HOME
I?VE GOT A GOOD LIFE THAT I?D LIKE TO KEEP
BUT YOU BRING ME TO MY KNEES
WHISKY ANGELS YOU ARE STEALING MY SOUL
I THINK IT?S TIME THAT YOU GO
YOU?RE NOT WELCOME IN MY HOME
WON?T YOU LEAVE MY ALONE
