Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I tried to be who you thought you'd found
A little more buttoned-up and a little less burn-it-down
It wasn't long 'fore you figured out
This cowboy don't fit in that far uptown
[PreChorus]
Been a minute since I went and tipped it all the way back
And just like that
[Chorus]
I'm catchin' up with the whiskey side of me
The guy that shows up when they pour 'em on strong
A little laid-back, little more wild and free
You ain't the only one that's 'bout to be gone
Gonna sit here by the jukebox and get a little bit tipsy
Bit of Marlboro, this new girl, and this bottle that's about empty
While you're lookin' for the guy you wanted me to be
I'm catchin' up with the whiskey side of me
Mm
[Verse 2]
Floatin' on this bartool high
I feel right at home with that glowin' "open" neon sign
It's good to hear a country song
I could sit here all night long
[Chorus]
Catchin' up with the whiskey side of me
The guy that shows up when they pour 'em on strong
A little laid-back, little more wild and free
You ain't the only one that's 'bout to be gone
Gonna sit here by the jukebox and get a little bit tipsy
Bit of Marlboro, this new girl, and this bottle that's about empty
While you're lookin' for the guy you wanted me to be
I'm catchin' up with the whiskey side of me
[Instrumental]
Been a minute since I went and tipped it all the way back
And just like that
[Chorus]
I'm catchin' up with the whiskey side of me
The guy that shows up when they pour 'em on strong
A little laid-back, little more wild and free
You ain't the only one that's 'bout to be gone
Gonna sit here by the jukebox and get a little bit tipsy
Bit of Marlboro, this new girl, and this bottle that's about empty
While you're lookin' for the guy you wanted me to be
I'm catchin' up with the whiskey side of me
