Whiskey and Steel Strings

Oooooo. Smoke and whiskey fill the air tonight. My steel guitar

crying soft and bright. In this old bar where the shadows play.

Every soul's been drinking pain away. Tipsy hearts are swaying with the sound.

Lost and found in melodies unwound. Strum these strings while the world fades out.

Jazz and blues is what it's all about. Everyone's drunk on memories and song.

In this hazy place where we belong, my band plays on

through the amber light. Steel guitar weeping through the night. Glasses clink

like broken harmony. Strangers dance with their misery. The piano man knows every tear
