C F
They say my tears come from the bottle
G7 C
That stands beside me all the time
C F
But I wonder if they know the sorrow
G7 C
That always overtakes the wine
F C
I drink to find forgetful valleys
C G7
Where I can leave old memories behind
C F
But always just before I reach them
G7 C
Sorrow overtakes the wine
C F
These tears can find me when I'm sober

They're quick to show up any time

And I always try to drink them under

But sorrow overtakes the wine

I drink to find forgetful valleys

Where I can leave old memories behind

But always just before I reach them
