Drinking From The Bottle
recorded by Bobby Bare
written by Shel Silverstein
C C7 F
Drinking from the bottle and singing from the heart
G7 C
Crying blues in motel rooms Lord the hard times weren't that hard
C7 F
And some fell in and some fell out and some just fell apart
G7 C
Drinking from the bottle and singing from the heart
G7
Harlan sang us Heartaches By The Number one more time
C
Johnny tell us how that woman helped you walk the line
C7 F
Willie sing us Hello Walls cause we all know our flaws
G7 C
We've been drinking from the bottle and singing from the heart
G7
That blond there sitting on the floor my sad song made her cry
C
I think she caught my zipper bout the time I caught her eye
C7 F
Well she can take my body home but who's gonna drive the car
G7 C
We've been drinking from the bottle and singing from the heart
repeat #1
G7
Now I sip my Chivits from a fancy crystal glass
C
A young ambitions eight piece pot band a pushing at my ass
C7 F
While we're singing for the money I think back to the start
G7 C
When we were drinking from the bottle and singing from the heart
repeat #1
