^Gremember him when he was young ^Dclean was in his eyes ^Emfull of bright ideas chasing ^Ccastles in the sky ^Gnow he doesnt look so young ^Dand his eyes have turned to red ^Emonly got one set of clothes and ^Ca park bench for a bed

[Chorus]

And he's t^Gurned t^Do the ^Cbottle ^Emlost a^Dll his ^Cpride ^Gas the whiskey c^Domes to c^Claim his soul ^Emslow motion ^Dsuicide

[Verse 2]

^Grecall the day when he left school ^Dhe went to mine for coal ^Embut that was thatcher's 80's and ^Clanded on the dole ^Gthat was way up north ^Dthe industries closed down ^Embut who employs the miner ^Cwhen theres no mine to be found?

[Chorus]

And he's t^Gurned t^Do the ^Cbottle ^Emlost a^Dll his ^Cpride ^Gas the whiskey c^Domes to c^Claim his soul ^Emslow motion ^Dsuicide

[Verse 3]

^Gwhat happened to his darling wife ^Dthey used to have such fun ^Emthe drinking and the violence made her ^Cpack her bags and run ^Gnow he walks a lonely road ^Dhes always turned away ^Emdrinking to the early grave ^Cit gets badder day by day

[Chorus]

And he's t^Gurned t^Do the ^Cbottle ^Emlost a^Dll his ^Cpride ^Gas the whiskey c^Domes to c^Claim his soul ^Emslow motion ^Dsuicide

^GNow he looks at his whole life ^Dthrough the bottom of a glass ^Emjust a man down on his luck ^Cand he swears this one's his last ^Gbut tomorrow you will see him out ^Dwith a bottle in his hand ^Emscreaming words of drunkeness ^Cbut no one understands

[Chorus]

And he's t^Gurned t^Do the ^Cbottle ^Emlost a^Dll his ^Cpride ^Gas the whiskey c^Domes to c^Claim his soul ^Emslow motion ^Dsuicide

^CIn this eyes you ^Emsee no pride ^Chell mercy by his ^Emside ^Cthe empty bottle he tries to hide oh ^Dnoooo
