Capo 1
E A
I come home late at night with my boots in my hands
Am E
Stumblin' the backdoor bein' quiet as I can
E A
And I know she's there in bed cold and all alone
Am E
And she's cryin' because I'm breaking up our home
[Refrão] E A
And she knows the hell that I'm goin' through
E B7
In this world inside my head
E A
There's a devil in the bottle Lord
E B7 A E
And he wants to see me dead
I fall into her arms and she helps me with my clothes
Guess she stays on with me cause she really knows
But I'm tryin' Lord to find my freedom
By escaping to the only freedom I've ever known
Chorus 2:
And she knows the hell that I'm goin' through in this world inside my head
There's a devil in the bottle Lord and he won't rest till I'm dead
There's a devil livin' in this bottle
And he won't rest till I'm dead
