No Intro / Cold Start 

(No chord) Tonight the bottle let me (F) down 
And let your memory come a(C)round  
The one true friend I thought I'd found  
Tonight the bottle let me (F) down  

Each (F) night I leave the bar room when it's over  
Not feeling any pain at closing (C) time  
But tonight your memory found me much too sober  
I couldn't drink enough to keep you off my (F) mind  

To(F)night the bottle let me down 
And let your memory come a(C)round  
The one true friend I thought I'd found  
Tonight the bottle let me (F) down  

(F)   (F)   (C)   (C)   (F)   (F)  

I've (F) always had a bottle I could turn to  
And lately I've been turnin' every (C) day  
But the wine don't take effect the way it used to  
And I'm hurtin' in an old familiar (F) way  

And to(F)night the bottle let me down 
And let your memory come a(C)round  
The one true friend I thought I'd found  
Tonight the bottle let me (F) down  

To(C)night the bottle let me (F) down
