G C
Last week he spent his whole paycheck on whiskey
G D G
And I know Friday night he'll do it all again
G C G
Oh he'll drink 'til he falls down and then order one more round
D G
and then go home with that bottle in his hand
CHORUS
G C G
and the only thing I can hold onto is This Bottle In My Hand
D
I know I'll never have to share it with any other man
G C G
I'm so glad you introduced us and I'll do the best I can
D G
To be faithful to this bottle in my hand
N/C G C G
She told George that changing diapers could sure become a drag

and to clean the house and cook for him was not her kind of bag
G C G
she said he needed someone who would love and understand
D G
and then she left him with this bottle in his hand
(repeat the chorus and upon outro)
G D G
Yes we'll be thankful for this bottle in our hand
