Merle Haggard Heaven Was a Drink of Wine Lyrics

Heaven Was A Drink Of Wine
That sychoed out psychologist, asked me
about drinking ways,
C Everything that he ask me all related back
unto my childhood days.
But if the truth was known, I never took to
drinking long, long as she was
mine.
But when she left me, I went to hell, and
heaven was a drink of wine.
G C That good doctor said "look at all those ink
spots and tell me what you see".
C Could I help it, if they all looked like,
big ol' broken hearts to me.
All my friends and kin will tell you, old
Hag aint the drinkin kind.
But when she left me, I went to hell, and
heaven was a drink of wine.
Get back, get back, get on back and leave me
alone.
C Cant you see that you cant help a man this
far gone. -----(pause)
Hey good doctor, I got something you cant
find, in my mind.
When she left me, I went to hell, and heaven
was a drink of wine.
G D When she left me, I went to hell, and heaven
was a drink of wine.
