[Intro] G D G D [Verse] 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 And everybody knows A how it goes when it does [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 thΠ΅ past Bm And the past holds the woman G At the bottom of thΠ΅ glass D So I don't have a problem A If I don't see the bottom [Solo] G D [Verse] 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 Wish I knew what Bm I could blame Em Without a moment Bm I could name Em Bm I don't have a thing that A I recall [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 thΠ΅ past Bm And the past holds the woman G At the bottom of thΠ΅ glass D So I don't have a problem A If I don't see the bottom [Solo] G D G D [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 [Outro] G D G D
