[Gm] [A]
[E] Well, each time I leave the bar room when it's over
And I'm feeling any pain that blows [Abm] the time
[Gbm] [B] But tonight your memory found me musty sober
Well, I said I'm gonna drink enough to [E] keep you off my mind
For the night, the bottle let me down
[Dbm]
[E] And let your memory [Abm] hang around
[B] But the one and only friend I thought I'd found
Oh, well, let it go [E] and let me down

[E] [Db] each night I need [Eb] a bottle I can turn [B] to
And now, let me be, I've been turning every day
But the wine don't take it back the way it used to
And [Eb] I'm hurting in that no [E] familiar way
For the night, the bottle [Dbm] let me down
[E] And let your memory [B] hang around
[Abm] But the one and [B] only friend I thought I'd found
Oh, well, let it go and let [G] me [E] down
