D                                  G 
I stay out late most every night until closing time 
A7                                 G             D 
Tryin' to find a way to drink your mem'ry off my mind 
    D                               G  
And even if it goes just right, I'd never make a bet 
    A7                            D 
But sometimes I get lucky and forget 
 
G               A                 D        
Sometimes I can close my eyes and you're not waiting there 
G            A              D        
Constantly reminding me how much you used to care 
G                 A                      D (walk down) Bm 
And losing you is one thing I guess I'll always--------regret 
      G               A             D 
Cause sometimes I get lucky and forget  
 
Sweet Rose' and burgundy just lead to scotch and rye 
At times it hurts me so much I just hang my head and cry 
No it ain't been easy for me, I'm not over you yet 
Cause sometimes I get lucky and forget 
 
Chorus
