[Verse]
G
There’s a half a bottle of bean
Em7
Sitting on the table
C D G D
And I ain’t had jack to drink since I don’t know when
G Em7
I used to turn the whiskey to help me with my problems
C G D
If only I knew what I was doing then
C G
All the wasted years, I’m completely out of tears
Em7 D
I found a brand-new definition of pain
C G
I lie awake at night digging thought running through my mind
Em D
The memories nearly driving me insane
[Chorus]
C G
In the bottle are no feels to ease the way I feel
Em D
It’s a hurt so deep I cannot describe
C
So that bottle will remain
G
Cause I know it can’t change a thing
Em D D
It’s just a temporary fix that fades in time
C Em7
Well, I know I’ll be alright
C D G G
If I can make it till that morning light
[Solo]
G Em7 C G D
G Em7 C G D
[Chorus]

In the bottle are no feels to ease the way I feel

It’s a hurt so deep I cannot describe

So that bottle will remain
G
Cause I know it can’t change a thing
Em D D
It’s just a temporary fix that fades in time
C Em7
Well, I know I’ll be alright
C D G
If I can make it till that morning light
[Outro]

Well, I know I’m gonna be alright
C D G
Thank God for sending me that morning light
G
There’s a half a bottle of bean
Em7
sitting on the table
C D G
And I ain’t had jack to drink since I don’t know when
