Bottle Let Me Down

D   G

[Chorus]
G
Tonight the bottle let me down
                         D
and let your memory come around
D
The one true friend I thought I'd found
                          G
Tonight the bottle let me down

[Verse 1]
G
I've always had a bottle I could turn to
                                  D
And lately I've been turning everyday
D
But the wine don't take effect the way it used to
                                   G
And I'm hurting in an old familiar way

[Chorus]
C  G
 Tonight the bottle let me down
                         D
and let your memory come around
D
The one true friend I thought I'd found
                          G
Tonight the bottle let me down

G    D    G

[Verse 2]
C    G
Each night I leave the barroom when it's over
                        D
Not feeling any pain at closing time
D
But tonight you memory found me much to sober
                                         G
Couldn't drink enough to keep you off my mind

[Chorus]
C  G
 Tonight the bottle let me down
                         D
and let your memory come around
D
The one true friend I thought I'd found
                          G
Tonight the bottle let me down
  D                        G
Tonight the bottle let me down
