[Verse 1]
D A
Each night I leave the barroom when it's over, not feeling any pain at closing time
A D
But tonight your memory found me much too sober; couldn't drink enough to keep you off my mind
[Chorus]
D A
Tonight the bottle let me down, and let your memory come around
A D
The one true friend I thought I'd found; tonight the bottle let me down
[Solo]
A A A A A A D D
[Verse 2]
D A
I've always had a bottle I could turn to, and lately I've been turning every day
A D
But the wine don't take effect the way it used to, and I'm hurting in an old familiar way
[Chorus]
D A
Tonight the bottle let me down, and let your memory come around
A D
The one true friend I thought I'd found; tonight the bottle let me down
[Turnaround]
A D D
Tonight the bottle let me down
