Each night I leave the bar room when it's over Not feeling any pain at [A] closing time
But tonight your memory found me much too sober Couldn't drink enough to keep you [D] off
my mind Tonight the bottle let me down
And let your memory [A] come around The one true friend I thought I'd found
Tonight the bottle [D] let me down [A]
[D]
I've always had a bottle
I could turn to And lately I've been turning [A] every day
But the wine don't take effect the way it used to
And I'm hurting in an old familiar [D] way Tonight the bottle let me down
And let your memory [A] come around The one true friend I thought I'd found
Tonight the bottle [D] let me down Tonight [A] the bottle [D] let me down
[D]
Each night I leave the bar room when it's over Not feeling any pain at [A] closing time
But tonight your memory found me much too sober Couldn't drink enough to keep you [D] off
my mind Tonight the bottle let me down
And let your memory [A] come around The one true friend I thought I'd found
Tonight the bottle [D] let me down [A]

I've always had a bottle
I could turn to And lately I've been turning [A] every day
But the wine don't take effect the way it used to
And I'm hurting in an old familiar [D] way Tonight the bottle let me down
And let your memory [A] come around The one true friend I thought I'd found
Tonight the bottle [D] let me down Tonight [A] the bottle [D] let me down
