Am G
Am G F G F
Am G F G F

[Verse 1]
Am                         G
Looks like I made it back just
               F
in time to see taillights
F
Fading in the sunset
Am                    G
I didn't know all the nights
                F
that I kept you waiting
F
Would turn into regrets
Am
Met 'em in the bottom
   G
of another glass
F
Tomorrow's gonna hurt real bad

[Chorus]
                  F
It's just another headache
               Am
hung over the heartaches
              G
From all this sippin'
and missin' you
                   F
I'm lining up them shots now
             Am
Don't mean I forgot how there
      G
ain't nothin that I can do
              F
'Cause I can drink till
              Am
the drink is dry
                G
Wake up in the morning
I'll remember last night
          F
No matter how I try when
   Am                  G
it comes to forgettin' you
Yeah, you're whiskey proof
Am G F

[Verse 2]
Am                    G
A pack of reds on the bar
                         F
I'm wondering where you are
F
Ain't enough cheap stuff
to bring you back
Am                      G
A cloud of smoke on the ceiling
                F
it hangs like a feeling
F
You ain't feeling but I am
Am                 G
I can pick a new drink
                 F
at a brand new place
F
And then the same

[Chorus]
                  F
It's just another headache
               Am
hung over the heartaches
              G
From all this sippin'
and missin' you
                   F
I'm lining up them shots now
             Am
Don't mean I forgot how there
      G
ain't nothin' that I can do
              F
'Cause I can drink till
              Am
the drink is dry
                G
Wake up in the morning
I'll remember last night
          F
No matter how I try when
    Am                  G
it comes to forgettin' you
Yeah you're whiskey proof

Mix it with coke but

This girl is just a headache

How to play Whiskey Proof: key, chords and progression

These are the chords for Whiskey Proof by Todd Cameron on Piano, Ukulele, Guitar, and Keyboard

Whiskey Proof by Todd Cameron sits in A minor (no sharps or flats), and you need 3 chords to play it: Am, G and F.

The progression the song keeps returning to is G – F – Am – G (VII – VI – i – VII in A minor). Learn these 4 changes first and most of the song falls into place.

Easier on guitar: put a capo on the 5th fret and play the shapes Em, D, C (100% of the chords become easy open shapes, against 67% without a capo). It sounds exactly the same.
