[Intro]
Em C x2
 
[Verse]
Em                                                       C
I stood there in the middle of the church of the broken people
Em                                           C
Listening to the walking wounded tell their stories
Em                                       C
My turn came I told them my name I said this aint my first time
           G                                                    D
And then a man started talking how the devil and the bottle was ruining my life
     C
With last night on my breath I stood up and said
 
[Chorus]
             G                    D
It ain't the whiskey, it aint the cigarettes
            Em                            C
It ain't the stuff I smoke, its all these things I can't forget
                 G                     D
And it ain't the hard time, it ain't the all nights
                   Em                C
Well it ain't that easy, it ain't the whiskey 
               Em     C
Thats killing me
 
[Verse]
Em                                             C
So what do you got for this empty spot inside me
Em                                   C
A deep dark hole where love used to be
          Em                              C
Before she ripped it out and ran into the arms of someone else
     G                                                        D
Yall sit in this room and you talk like you got some kind of remedy
            C
Well I hear what you're telling me but I got all the proof I need
 
[Chorus]
            G                    D
It ain't the whiskey, it ain't the cigarettes
            Em                            C
It ain't the stuff I smoke, its all these things I can't forget
                 G                          D
And it ain't the hard time, it ain't the all nights
                   Em                     C
Well it ain't that easy, cause it aint the whiskey 
                 Em
Thats killing me
 
[Instrumental]
Em  C   Em      C G D
 
[Bridge]
D                    Am
I done everything to drown this hurt inside
           C
But I can't wash you off my mind
 
[Chorus/Outro]
            G                    D
It ain't the whiskey, it ain't the cigarettes
            Em                            C
It ain't the stuff I smoke, its all these things I cant forget
                 G                     D
And it ain't the hard time, it ain't the all nights
                   Em                C
Well it ain't that easy, it ain't the whiskey 
               Em C, Em  C
That's killing me
             Em      C,                  Em   C,      D     Em   D/F#   G   Am   A    Em
It ain't the whiskey       That's killing me      oooooh

One more correction in keeping with the key of e minor I think the A in the bridge needs to be an Aminor or Amin7 otherwise great tab!
