Chris Stapleton – Whiskey Sunrise Lyrics

There’s a tear in the mud on the banks of the river
And the sound of a lover’s goodbye
And a pain in my heart ’cause I could not forgive her
That’s as deep as the river is wide

I’m lost, and I’m lonesome, when I look in the mirror
I don’t like the man that I see
And the more that I look, the more it gets clearer
Pride made a fool out of me

So I drink all night
But the hurtin’ won’t stop
And every shot I take just turns into teardrops
And I lay down to sleep
And I pray I don’t open my eyes
To a whiskey sunrise

The cold wind blows, the leaves start to scatter
And the rain will be comin’ on soon
And everything’s wrong and nothing don’t matter
The black cloud is crossin’ the moon

So I drink all night
But the hurtin’ won’t stop
And every shot I take just turns into teardrops
And I lay down to sleep
And I pray I don’t open my eyes
To a whiskey sunrise
