Bad Girl Blues - Cheap Whiskey Halo
[Intro] (Harmonica wail) Breathe in through the cracks Kitchen clock ticking like it’s got somewhere to be I set my keys down slow Like noise might make this worse [Harmony 1] Broke again (Broke again) Heart's a mess (Heart's a mess) Broke again (Broke again) [Verse 1] I woke up broke again Bills on the table Half a cup of cold black coffee Doorbell in the hall You said you’d be back by noon Now the clock won’t help me out [Pre-Chorus] My boots by the sink Your coat on the chair I say your name out loud Like you might still be there [Chorus] Blues in my bones Blues in my soul Blues in my bones Blues in my soul Warm side gone Left me the bruise [Harmony 2] Yeah, the warm side, baby (Warm side, baby) Left me with nothing but the bruise (Nothing but the bruise) [Verse 2] The screen door sticks on the hinge Porch bulb fading fast Your key still in my junk drawer Like it knows not to ask The dog won’t touch his kibble He keeps his eyes on the road [Pre-Chorus 2] My boots by the sink Your coat on the chair I say your name out loud Like you might still be there [Chorus 2] Blues in my bones Blues in my soul Blues in my bones Blues in my soul Warm side gone Left me the bruise [Harmony 3] Oh, the blues, the blues (The blues) Just these old blues (Old blues) [Verse 3] Every song on the radio Sounds like it's about you Every shadow on the wall Makes me think of what we knew Guess some things just break And never quite mend [Pre-Chorus 3] My boots by the sink Your coat on the chair I say your name out loud Like you might still be there [Chorus 3] Blues in my bones Blues in my soul Blues in my bones Blues in my soul Warm side gone Left me the bruise [Verse 4] The coffee's long gone cold now Just like the bed beside me Another day just starting Without you here to see This empty house keeps whispering The echo of your name [Bridge] I drove out past Gresham Got coffee at Powell's Hit Highway 101 by dawn The Tillamook fog was thick and low With the tide half gone I stood there in my work jeans Salt wind cutting through Tried to wash you off my hands But the ocean knew [Outro] Yeah, the ocean knew I woke up broke again The mug in the sink Your jacket on the chair (Harmonica fades out)
