[A] I [G] [D]
don't [A] remember a smile, no kind [G] words were spoke, just an ashtray [D] full of sin.
Shattered glass from a bottle broke, too young to [A] know this pain.
But there's nowhere [G] to hide, I probably [D] could have run, [A] but I stood by my [D] mama's side.
When he put the [G] bottle down, there was silence [D] in the air.
You could see his [A] eyes turn black, he drank the devil's [D] blood, I swear.
This prison was our home, [G] there were no angels [Bm] to be found.
[A] And I would [G] pray to God for [Gm] him to put the [D] bottle down.
When you're young you [A] don't know hate, but it don't take [G] long to [D] learn.
He was supposed to keep us safe, [A] we got torture [D] every time.
And I still [A] wear these scars, and time [G] can't heal them.
And your [D] apology, it won't change the way I feel.
When he put the [G] bottle down, there was silence [D] in the air.
You could see his eyes [A] turn black, he drank the devil's [D] blood, I swear.
[E] And this prison [G] was our home, there were no angels to [Bm] be found.
[A] And I would [G] pray to God for [Gm] him to put the [D] bottle down.
The whiskey finally took [A] his life, stole his kids [G] and his wife.
He crossed over in [D] his sleep, [C] and there was no one there [D] to weep.
[E] I had to put a [G] bottle down, convince myself to say [D] goodbye.
In love and memory you'll [A] be missed.
I curse [A] this stone carved with [D] a lie, and this prison's now [G] your home.
Fallen angels all [Bm] around, [A] and at least I don't [G] have to pray.
[Gm] For him to put the [D] bottle down.
