(Verse 2)
So hold your head up and tell yourself that there’s something more
And walk out that door
Go find a new rose, don’t be afraid of the thorns
Cause we all have thorns
Just put your feet up to the edge
Put your face in the wind
And when you fall back down
Keep on remembering

(Chorus)
Every storm runs, runs out of rain
Just like every dark night, turns into day
Every heartache, will fade away
Just like every storm runs, runs out of rain

Am C Am F X4

(Bridge)
It’s gonna run out of pain
It’s gonna run out of steam
It’s gonna leave you alone
C (Stop let ring)
Its gonna set you free, set you free

(Chorus)
Every storm runs, runs out of rain
Just like every dark night, turns into day
Every heartache, will fade away
Just like every storm runs, runs out of rain

Gary Allan “Tough Goodbye”

The inversion chords on this song should be played with only a few notes, and are designed to be
electric guitar chords, but they will sound fine on your flat top. If the
fingering is too challenging,
simplify by not playing one or more strings. Have fun!

Gary Allan, “Sand In My Soul”

(intro)
2x

(verse)
Floatin’ away like a bottle in the water
Sun down here just feels a little hotter
Burnin’ away today cuz I ain’t got her no more, no more.

(verse)
Somethin’ kinda dark about stone white beaches
Nobody here practice what they preachin’
Truth is, the truth ain’t what I’m reachin’ for
In the distance I hear tequila talk and college chicks in the parking lot
While I just lay here starin’ up at God

(chorus)
With sand in my soul, beer in my veins
Let my hair grow, in room 108
Gettin over you, I ain’t even gunna try
Cuz I’m on a roll, fillin’ up this hole
With sand in my soul

(verse)
Headphone shades never gettin’ rattled
Spend all day just building you a castle
It’s okay if you’re back in the saddle at home, back home.
I hate to say I’m glad you broke my heart
And I hate to say it isn’t tearin’ me apart
But I love the way this tiki bar is somehow never closed

(chorus)
Sand in my soul, beer in my veins
Let my hair grow, in room 108
Gettin over you, I ain’t even gunna try
Cuz I’m on a roll, fillin up this hole
With sand in my soul

(bridge)

Uh, uh, oh-oh-oh-oh, Uh, uh, oh-oh-oh-oh, Uh, uh, oh-oh-oh-oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh

Uh, uh, oh-oh-oh-oh, Uh, uh, oh-oh-oh-oh, Uh, uh, oh-oh-oh-oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh

In the distance I hear tequila talk and college chicks in the parking lot
While I just lay here starin’ up at God

(chorus-out)
Sand in my soul, beer in my veins
Let my hair grow, down to my waist
Gettin over you, I ain’t even gunna try
Cuz I’m on a roll, fillin up this hole
With sand in my soul, With sand in my soul

Gary Allen, “It Ain’t the Whiskey”

(intro)
2x

(verse)
I stood there in the middle of the church of the broken people
Listening to the walking wounded tell their stories
My turn came I told them my name I said this aint my first time
And then a man started talking how the devil and the bottle was ruining my life
With last night on my breath I stood up and said

(chorus)
It ain’t the whiskey, it aint the cigarettes
It ain’t the stuff I smoke, its all these things I can’t forget
And it ain’t the hard time, it ain’t the all nights
Well it ain’t that easy, it ain’t the whiskey
Thats killing me

(verse)
So what do you got for this empty spot inside me
A deep dark hole where love used to be
Before she ripped it out and ran into the arms of someone else
Yall sit in this room and you talk like you got some kind of remedy
Well I hear what you’re telling me but I got all the proof I need

(chorus)
It ain’t the whiskey, it ain’t the cigarettes
It ain’t the stuff I smoke, its all these things I can’t forget
And it ain’t the hard time, it ain’t the all nights
Well it ain’t that easy, cause it aint the whiskey
Thats killing me

(instrumental)

(bridge)
I got all I need to drown this hurt inside
But I can’t wash you off my mind

(chorus-out)
It ain’t the whiskey, it ain’t the cigarettes
It ain’t the stuff I smoke, its all these things I cant forget
And it ain’t the hard time, it ain’t the all nights
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
