Key: E ๐ŸŽธ Intro: G D G D ๐ŸŽธ Verse 1: Bm Love is a mystery D It's a tricky thing Bm It's more than a word D More than a ring Em Bm When the right thing turns to wrong Em Bm Turns into a lonesome song Em Bm A And everybody knows how it goes when it does
๐ŸŽธ Chorus: G The bottle holds the whiskey G The whiskey holds the man D The man holds the bottle when it's all that's left G And the left hand lights what the right hand holds D The smoke can't hide what the heart regrets G 'Cause the heart holds the memory A And the memory holds thะต past Bm And the past holds the woman G At the bottom of thะต glass D So I don't have a problem A If I don't see the bottom Guitar ๐ŸŽธ Solo: G D ๐ŸŽธ Verse 2: Bm I played it all over D Over in my mind Bm I'm lookin' for the reasons D I just can't find Em Bm Wish I knew what I could blame Em Bm Without a moment I could name Em Bm A I don't have a thing that I recall ๐ŸŽธ Chorus: G The bottle holds the whiskey G The whiskey holds the man D The man holds the bottle when it's all that's left G And the left hand lights what the right hand holds D The smoke can't hide what the heart regrets G 'Cause the heart holds the memory A And the memory holds thะต past Bm And the past holds the woman G At the bottom of thะต glass D So I don't have a problem A If I don't see the bottom Guitar ๐ŸŽธ Solo: G D G D ๐ŸŽธ Chorus: G 'Cause the heart holds the memory A And the memory holds the past Bm And the past holds the woman G At the bottom of the glass D So I don't have a problem A If I don't see the bottom G Oh, the hurt's holdin' me A And I'm holdin' on Bm To a hundred-proof truth G And a hope that's long gone D So I don't have a problem A If I don't see the bottom ๐ŸŽธ Outro: G D G D
