Verse:
C majorC A#A#
With fire in my veins I laid down to rest
FF C majorC
Not carein' if I live or die
A#A#
Woke up a freezing rain pouring down
FF C majorC
So hard I can't open my eyes
FF G7G7
I been chased from the yards with dogs at my heels
FF G7G7 C majorC
Searchin' for shelter at times
A#A#
But there's nothin' so hard for a man on the bum
C majorC G7G7 C majorC
As the time between bottles of wine
G7G7 C majorC
The time between bottles of wine
D7D7 C majorC
Beggin' for pennies for just one taste
G7G7 D7D7
Of the nectar that kills a mans soul
C majorC
Sweet piece of mind excusing my pride
G7G7 D7D7
Just something to keep out the cold
G7G7 A7A7
It's too late for me to start living again
G7G7 A7A7 D7D7
The good life is too far behind
C majorC
I never remember the things that I had
D7D7 A7A7 D7D7
Till the time between bottles of wine
A minorAm D7D7 G7G7
The time between bottles of wine
D7D7 C majorC
If momma could see me she wouldn't believe
G7G7 D7D7
I even resemble her son
C majorC
She worked all her life to make me a man
G7G7 D7D7
And she's proud of the job that she's done
G7G7 A7A7
What one love created another destroyed
G7G7 A7A7 D7D7
It’s a story older than time
C majorC
The tale of a man who just can't stand
D7D7 A minorAm D7D7
The time between bottles of wine
A minorAm D7D7
The time between bottles of wine
A minorAm D7D7
The time between bottles of wine
A minorAm D7D7
The time between bottles of wine
