Like A Coat From The Cold

I found comfort and courage in bottles of whiskey
 ♪
 But I swear to you friend, that that life is so risky
 And I have backed away quickly from those that would burn me
 And stopped up my ears that no one should learn me
 But the lady beside me is the one I have chosen
 To walk through my life like a coat from the cold
 ♪
 I have flown like a bird from each cage that confined me
 And broken every one of the ties that would bind
 And I have danced me around some sad ol' situations
 And taken my share of them sweet temptations
 But the lady beside me is the one I have chosen
 To walk through my life like a coat from the cold
