Me and the [C#] bottle [D#] [F] [F#] have always been friends
[C#] Oh, we had a few old nasty fights
[B] But the bottle, it [F#] always went
[D#] [A#m] And [F#] when I've gone to answer that final curtain call
I [C#] can hear these words being whispered [F#] by all
[B] [F#]
Old Jones, stop drinking today
They're
[G#m] [A#] [B] all gonna gather round me
