Merle Haggard The Bottle Let Me Down

^DEach night I leave the barroom when it's over Not feeling any pain at closing time ^A ^ABut tonight you memory found me much to sober Couldn't drink enough to keep you off my mind ^D

CHORUS:

^DTonight the bottle let me down and let you memory come around ^A ^AThe one true friend I thought I'd found Tonight the bottle let me down ^D

^DI've always had a bottle I could turn to And lately I've been turning everyday ^A ^ABut the wine don't take effect the way it used to And I'm hurting in an old familiar way ^D

CHORUS:

^DTonight the bottle let down and let you memory come around ^A ^AThe one true friend I thought I'd found Tonight the bottle let down ^D ^ATonight the bottle let down ^D
