Capo 3
Intro:
Verse 1:
I can t stand the smell of smoke
But I bought myself a pack
Borowed a light from a stranger
Nearly choked on that first drag
And I hate the taste of whiskey
And this barroom ain t my style
But I ll try anything not to hurt for a while.
Verse 2:
Seems like forever since I looked
Into the eyes of another man
In my lifetime I ve never known a one night stand
Lord knows it s wrong to let a stranger turn out your bedroom light
But I ll try anything not to hurt for awhile
Chorus:
I m tired, so tired of cryin
Tired of reachin for a memory in the middle of the night
So sick of pain runnin through my veins
Overtakin my whole life
I ll try anything not to hurt for a while.
I ll try anything not to hurt for a while
Verse 2:
It ain t like me to be a cussin
Gettin tore up in this bar
Guess a good ole girl can backslap
runin from a broken heart
I pray the good lord ain t a lookin
takin notes on me tonight
Cause I ll try anything not to hurt for a while
Chorus x2
