Intro: D   G

G 
Tonight the barroom 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 


[Verso 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

[Verso 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
