Written by Mike Henderson/Chris Stapleton
G Drinkin dark whiskey, tellin' white lies D One leads to another on a Saturday night C G Don't you cross your heart unless you hope to die D G Drinkin dark whiskey, tellin' white lies G The first drop burns but the second one goes down smooth C G And then that ol' black label gets a hold of you D G It'll loosen your tongue but it don't ever tell the truth Chorus When the bottle 's talkin be careful what he might say He talks in the dark like he never would in the day Then he gets in trouble just as soon as he gets his way Chorus A little white lie don't mean anyone no good When it's makin the rounds all over the neighborhood Next thing you know you're all misunderstood Chorus Drinkin dark whiskey, tellin' white lies
