  			C                              F 
At the bottom of the bottle is where a man can hide 

        C                     D7           G7 
When he must cross a river he knows is too wide 

         C                    F 
When the bottle is empty even heartaches are gone 

           C                        G7         C 
Though his eyes can't see no one he don't feel alone 

  
                                     F 
Come go with me to the bottom of the bottle 

       C                            G7 
On our way down we may meet fond memories 

       C                             F 
I talk better from the bottom of the bottle 

              C           G7             C 
Come join the man who she left so helplessly 

  
                                    F 
They all tell me that last night my baby came in 

        C                     D7         G7 
And she walked to my table to forgive me again 

   C                           F 
My eyes caught a memory and my mind tried in vain 

            C                       G7                C 
I said your face looks familiar but I can't call your name 
  

                                     F 
Come go with me to the bottom of the bottle 

       C                            G7 
On our way down we may meet fond memories 

       C                             F 
I talk better from the bottom of the bottle 

              C           G7             C 
Come join the man who she left so helplessly
