Lyrics
EVERYTHING THAT COULD GO RIGHT HAS GONE WRONG
Will Barton & Eddy Havrilla
v.1 There?s the barstool
where I sit
Like a darn fool
trying to forget
That everything that could go right
has gone wrong
So I sit there
night after night
Drinking cold beer
Until I?m tight
And then it?s home sweet home
To sleep alone
v.2 You were the right one
for me
And the right one
to leave
Cause in this honky-tonk
is where I belong
That?s where the memories
come pourin? back
and that?s when I
start pourin? Jack
And wait for closing time
To close in on me
Chorus:
Cause everything that could go right
has gone wrong? so tonight
I?m gonna sit here on my throne
overlooking everything that went wrong
like a good love gone bad
a good woman I once had
and thank my lucky stars
for shining on me
v.3 So I wonder
now and again
If it?d been different
back then
If I?d spent a little
less time around here
Cause there?s one thing
I know was right
It?s when we?d hold
each other tight
Now the only thing I have to hold
is this beer
Chorus
Repeat first half of v.1
