Verse
She said forever, then left in a rush
Took her perfume and my last trust
Now that "for better" turned out for worse
Guess I'll drown that promise till it don't hurt
Ain't sitting here crying in the dark
I'm two-stepping with my broken heart
Pre-Chorus
If I'm going down, hell, I'm going tonight
Might as well do it under neon light
Chorus
So pour one for the memories,
Two for the pain,
Three for the things I can't explain
She hit me hard, that's for sure,
but the bartender's got the cure
Yeah, love don't last, but whiskey delivers
She broke the heart, I'll break the liver
Verse
She took the dog and the Ford and the ring
Left me the bar tab and these old strings
Now every sad song turns into a grin
Because heartbreak's better when the shots kick in
No use chasing what's off the track
I'm talking to Jack and he talks back
Pre-Chorus
If I can't forget what we used to be
I guess the whiskey can do it for me
Chorus
So pour one for the wreckage,
Two for the truth,
Three for the nights that never came through
She hit me deep, that's for sure
But I'm top shelf healing on this floor
Yeah, I'll raise what's left and call it a winner
Because if she broke the heart, I'll break the liver
Bridge
Hey, raise 'em high, everybody's been there
To the lost loves, the late nights, I don't care
We'll toast the pain till it's out the door
Then holler for one more pour
Chorus
Now pour one for the freedom,
Two for the grin,
Three because I ain't never hurt like this again
She hit me hard, that's for sure
But whiskey shows me what is more
Yeah, the hurt's still there, but fading quick
Because she broke the heart, I'll break the liver
Outro
Maybe I'll forgive her
Maybe I'll forgive her
So barkeep, keep them coming
Just a little mercy quicker
If she damaged the heart, hell, I'll damage the liver
