Whiskey & Cigarettes (Remastered)

[female vocal] [Verse 1] Dim the lights, let the record play slow A glass of bourbon, nowhere to go One slow drag, smoke curls in the air One smooth burn, I don’t even care Time slips away, no need to rush Just the night and this quiet crush [Pre-Chorus] No conversations, no empty lies Just the haze in my head, the burn in my mind [Chorus] Whiskey and cigarettes, slow and low Drifting soft where the cold winds don’t go One calm sip, one slow breath These two old vices are all I have left Whiskey and cigarettes [Verse 2] Ash falls light on the wooden table Memories fade, I’m barely able To keep the world outside my door Pour another, let the shadows pour Silence wraps me like a gentle fog I don’t need anyone to talk [Chorus] Whiskey and cigarettes, slow and low Drifting soft where the cold winds don’t go One calm sip, one slow breath These two old vices are all I have left Whiskey and cigarettes [Pre-Chorus,long instrumental solo, saxophone solo, piano solo] [Bridge] No need for company, no need for words They hold me close when the hurt occurs When the night gets long and the dark sits thick I’ve got whiskey and cigarettes [Interlude] Soft instrumental break, smooth saxophone, slow bluesy guitar, hazy ambient vibe [Chorus] Whiskey and cigarettes, slow and low Drifting soft where the cold winds don’t go One calm sip, one slow breath These two old vices are all I have left Whiskey and cigarettes [Outro] Smoke fades slow, the glass runs dry Still I linger, don’t wanna say goodbye Whiskey and cigarettes Just whiskey and cigarettes
