Sung By: George Strait
CD: Straight Out of the Box
Written By: ?
Transcribed By: M. Lawrence

Intro:  C    F    G    C F C
Verse 1.
C                Am     C       F        G       C
You ain't never fell as far as when you fall in love
                                            D              G
Accept the fall you take when you've been loved then given up
C                     Am        C     F      G       C 
When you've had your heart and soul rubbed into the dirt
                                         G             C       F
An 80 proof bottle of tear stopper will take away the hurt

(Chorus)
           C
Give me an 80 proof bottle of tear stopper
     F 
And I'll start feelin' I've forgot her
C                       Am      C   F   G
Get a little loose and lose her memory
    C     
And I won't think I'm close to dying
F   
Cause its dries up all my cryin'
C                      Am      C
An 80 proof bottle of tear stopper
F       G        C
Always sets me free

(Repeat Intro)

Verse 2.
C              Am     C        F          G         C
It ain't easy losin' love although it's turned out bad
                                    D                 G
All at once you're turning off old feelings you once had
C                  Am     C     F        G      C
But I've found a helpin' hand right here in my hand
                                         G              C     F
An 80 proof bottle of tear stopper will help me take command

(Repeat Chorus x2)
