[Verse 1]
      A     D             E                D
That bottle of whiskey - ain’t gonna drink it self
         A          D           E                 D
We been waiting for a reason to take it down off that shelf
         A              D            E        D                  A   D 
If that tops the only thing between you and me getting where we want…
             E   D
It’s better off…

[Pre-Chorus]
     A   D          E             D 
Girl I’m a mess - I know we ain’t even left
           A     D             E              D
So if we don’t show up we’ll blame it all on that dress
   A           D                   E     D                         A    D
I love the way it looks on you so baby I hope you don’t take this wrong..
                 E   D
It looks better off…

[Chorus]
    A      F#m               E          D
And I’m better off when I’m loving you baby
  A            F#m             E     D
Ain’t no doubt about it I’m a lucky man
  A         F#m             E          D 
I’d be good as gone if you hadn’t come along and saved me
                E               A   D   E   D
Because of you baby I’m better off………..

[Verse 2]
      A     F#m         E              D 
That song that’s on is making me think tonight
        A      F#m                     E           D     
We can burn a couple candles, let the moon peak through the blinds
         A           F#m            E               D                   A   F#m
I could look at you forever but if killing all the lights will turn you on…..
                E   D  
They’re better off…

[Chorus]
    A      F#m               E          D
And I’m better off when I’m loving you baby
  A            F#m             E     D
Ain’t no doubt about it I’m a lucky man
  A         F#m             E          D 
I’d be good as gone if you hadn’t come along and saved me
                E               A 
Because of you baby I’m better off
