[Verse]
                 G
Well it ain't in a
bottle
C
It don't get better
Em7
over time
 D
You can't get it

in a tall glass

Or set it up with
salt and lime
D                 G
It ain't the strongest
medicine
 C
Just 'cause it burns
Em7
going down
 D
You can't get it

by the shot
            C
Pour it on the rocks

[Chorus]
         C       G
No, the hard stuff is
watching you leave me
Em7               D
Goodbye lightin' up
a cloud of dust
        C    G
Yeah, the hard stuff,
better believe me
   Em7               D
Is one man's treasure in
     C
another man's truck
         G
And ain't a bottle
  Em7
on the shelf
        D
That burns worse than
   C
the hurt like hell
         G
But knowing you
don't need me
Em7
Is got the hard
    D       G   C   Em7
stuff going down easy

[Verse]
D                   G
I ain't ever had a sip
of nothing
 C
That ties my
           Em7  D
stomach up in knots
             G
Like seeing you with
C
someone new
And at our
  Em7  D
same old spots
I ain't ever
   G
tasted nothing
C           Em7
Ever hit me this way
D            G
I can't put a fight
              C
It keeps me up all
night
             Em7
It hurts more the
    D
next day

[Chorus]
      C       G
No, the hard stuff is
watching you leave me
Em7                D
Goodbye lightin' up a
cloud of dust
           C    G
Yeah, the hard stuff,
better believe me
  Em7
Is one man's
        D
treasure in
    C
another
man's truck
         G        Em7
And ain't a bottle on
the shelf
        D
That burns worse
than
    C
the hurt like hell
             G
But knowing you
don't need me
Em7
Is got the hard
  D        C     G
stuff going dooown,
down, down

[Break]
         D
Like it's water, not
a
     G
hundred proof fix me
        C         G
Then pour it out right
now
 D                G
Turns out the missing

     C     G   Em7
misery is the hard stuff
 D
