[Verse:]

C
When I was a child 
       F
they'd ask me where it hurt 
    Am                     F
and wipe the tears from my eyes

C
Sure embraces, 
       F
gentle forehead kisses 
       Am              F
making sure that I was alright

[Pre-Chorus:]   

   C                    F
As I grew older and the nights grew shorter
     Am                    F
I no longer cared where it hurt

[Chorus:]

C               F
  All I hear is, Whisky Lullabies
Am                      F
  there to cradle me to sleep
C               F
  All I hear is, Whisky Lullabies
Am                      F
  there to cradle me to sleep

[Verse:]

C 
Scars they heal in time 
    F 
the raw wounds on my mind
     Am               F
they aren't so easily fixed

C 
You can't mend what isn't broken
F
Kind words are rarely spoken
Am                   F
in time I will learn this

[Pre-Chorus:]

    C
But I grow older 
        F
and the nights grow shorter
Am                     F
drowning as I sink or swim

[Chorus:]

C               F
  All I hear is, Whisky Lullabies
Am                      F
  there to cradle me to sleep
C               F
  All I hear is, Whisky Lullabies
Am                      F
  there to cradle me to sleep

[Bridge:]

C                       F
Sticks and stones they break me to the bone
Am             F
Words they cut they will always hurt me

F      G            Am
Please be my saving Grace
F      G            Am
Please be my saving Grace
F      G            Am
How to answer all my prayers
F      G            Am
Please be my saving Grace

[Chorus:]

(Back to strumming)

C               F
  All I hear is, Whisky Lullabies
Am                      F
  there to cradle me to sleep
C                   F
  and all I hear is, Whisky Lullabies
Am                      F
  there to cradle me to sleep

[Bridge:]

C                       F
Sticks and stones they break me to the bone
Am             F
Words they cut they will always hurt me
C                       F
Sticks and stones they break me to the bone
Am             F
Words they cut they will always hurt me
