Conway Twitty - Bottle in the hand is much stronger than the man

^CWill I ask my old buddy to call her on the phone He'll say I'm working late again once more she'll be ^G7alone

But I'll sit ^Chere in this barroom just as ^C7long as I ^Fcan Cause the ^Cbottle ^Fin the ^Chand is much ^G7stronger than the ^Cman

After ^Fall I've said and done she should ^Cleave me on the run Cause I've hurt her ^Fjust as ^Cmuch as I ^G7can

But I'll ^Ckeep up my sinful livin' and ^C7she'll go on ^Fforgivin' She knows the ^Cbottle ^Fin the ^Chand is much ^G7stronger than the ^Cman

Like the food on the table our love is growing ^G7cold But she ^Cgoes to bed each evening with^C7out her loving ^Fman

Because the ^Cbottle ^Fin the ^Chand is much ^G7stronger than the ^Cman

After ^Fall I've said and done she should ^Cleave me on the run Cause I've hurt her ^Fevery ^Cway that I ^G7can

But I'll ^Ckeep up my sinful livin' and ^C7she'll go on ^Fforgivin' She knows the ^Cbottle ^Fin the ^Chand is much ^G7stronger than the ^Cman
