GEORGE JONES 

D                                        G 
Last week he spent his whole paycheck on whiskey 
           D                   A7         D  G D 
And I know Friday night he'll do it all again 
         D            G         D  
And he'll drink 'til he falls down  
           G              D 
and he’ll order one more round 
     G       D               A7           D  G D 
and then go home with that bottle in his hand

             D      G           D   
and the only thing I can hold onto  
        G            D 
is this bottle in my hand 
                    G       D                     A7 
I know I'll never have to share it with any other man 
        D         G    D                G             D 
I'm so glad you introduced us and I'll do the best I can 
 G     D               A7            D  G D 
To be faithful to this bottle in my hand

DAVID: 

E                                      
She told George that changing diapers  
      A             E 
could sure become a drag 
                                                            
and to clean the house and cook for him  
                    B 
was not her kind of bag 
     E                                A              E 
she said he needed someone who would love and understand 
     A           E               B            E  A E 
and then she left him with that bottle in his hand
