Discover the story of the song > Whiskey And You – Chris Stapleton

The protagonist has been drinking a lot of whiskey to cope with his pain and loneliness, but he acknowledges that it's not a real solution to his problems and it only numbs his feelings temporarily. He compares the effects of whiskey to his former romantic partner, whom he still loves and misses. While whiskey helps him avoid his pain, his ex-girlfriend is the painful truth that he cannot avoid and trying to find solace in alcohol won't fix his heartache.
