[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/w/william_elliott_whitmore/sorest_of_eyes_crd.html ]
Blow out those candles and crawl into bed
Hold me close and don't let go
The storm clouds are gatherin' all overhead
and the wind is starting to blow
G D
I never felt better than in your two arms
A
and the moon never shone so bright
G D
All my woes seem to fade away
D A D
Darlin' you sure are a sight
(the last two verses go back to the original pattern)
Tea in the morning and whiskey at night
is such a hard cycle to break
but your company is just fine by me
Lovin for lovins sake
You shoot me that look from them big doe eyes
like a slug from a forty-four
It's as easy as that for you to lay me out flat
that's one thing that's always for sure
