Darryl Atherton - Bar Room Blues Lyrics

Here I am again with my old friend
His name is Jim Beam bang on trend
I need his courage to make it home at night
Gotta keep out of trouble don't need another fight

Time to chill out kick off my shoes
Could do without a dose of bar room blues

Don't want to be alone in the house tonight
A year since you've been gone still not right
Seeing photographs of you set me off crying
If I said I was over it I'd certainly be lying

Time to chill out kick off my shoes
Could do without a dose of bar room blues

To say goodbye that drab autumn day
Planted emptiness in my heart here to stay
Still feel like half of me has gone missing
To see you again is what I'm missing

Time to chill out kick off my shoes
Could do without a dose of bar room blues

Without you by my side my heart is broken
When our children are here the smile's a token
I try not to let them see the drinking
They wouldn't understand what I'm thinking

Time to chill out kick off my shoes
Could do without a dose of bar room blues

Until we meet again on the other side of life's curtain
My life will be unfulfilled of that I'm certain
Be that tomorrow or years in the future
I'll be glad to see you of that I'm sure
