Version 1 Version 2Merle Haggard - The Bottle Let Me Down [Verse 1] D Each night I leave the barroom when it's over A Not feeling any pain at closing time A But tonight your memory found me much too sober D Couldn't drink enough to keep you off my mind [Chorus] D Tonight the bottle let me down A and let your memory come around A The one true friend I thought I'd found D Tonight the bottle let me down [Verse 2] D I've always had a bottle I could turn to A And lately I've been turning everyday A But the wine don't take effect the way it used to D And I'm hurting in an old familiar way [Chorus] D Tonight the bottle let me down A and let your memory come around A The one true friend I thought I'd found D Tonight the bottle let me down A D Tonight the bottle let me down
