Here I sit behind the bottle, like I've done so many times
D D7 G
That just ain't no way to shake it, no one else can take her place
A7 D
And the bottle holds the memory that a new love can't replace
D D7 G
The bottle holds the memory of the times we used to share
A7 D
She would not take me back again if I cried a million tears
D D7 G
So I smile and run my fingers gently on my new love's face
A7 D
While I hold the bottled memory that time could not erase
D D7 G
She don't realize I'm lonely, she thinks everything is fine
A7 D
Tell another joke bartender, Lord I'm about to lose my mind
D D7 G
I'm just goin' thru the motions, Lord I'll never win this race
A7 D
While I hold the bottled memory that time could not erase
D D7 G
Here I sit behind this bottle like I've done so many times
A7 D
Drinkin' to my new love with my old love on my mind
D D7 G
That just ain't no way to shake it, no one else can take her place
