Bottle in my Hand George Jones & David Allen Coe Capo 3rd 1st Verse:

^DLast week he spent his whole paycheck on ^Gwhiskey And I know ^DFriday night he'll d^A7o it all ag^Dain^G ^D And he'll^D drink 'til h^Ge falls do^Dwn and he'll o^Grder one more r^Dound and t^Ghen go h^Dome with that bo^A7ttle in his h^Dand^G ^D

CHORUS:

and the only ^Dthing I^G can hold on^Dto is this ^Gbottle in my ^Dhand I know I'll never ha^Gve to sh^Dare it with any other ^A7man I'm so g^Dlad you in^Gtrodu^Dced us and I'll d^Go the best I c^Dan T^Go be f^Daithful to this ^A7bottle in my h^Dand^G ^D

2nd Verse:

^DShe told George that changing diapers could ^Gsure become a ^Ddrag and to clean the house and cook for him was not her kind of^A7 bag she s^Daid he needed someone who would l^Gove and underst^Dand and t^Ghen she l^Deft him with that b^A7ottle in his h^Dand^G ^D

(repeat the chorus and upon outro)

^GYes we'll be t^Dhankful for this ^A7bottle in our ha^Gnd ^D

(For the second verse, there's a key change. The easy way to accomplish this is to move the capo up to the 5th fret. This version IS correct! Play along with George and Allen and see!)
