Pandoras Bottle
Electric guitar on the original recording is likely capoed at the 5th fret. This version is not capoed for ease of play. Guitar/Piano compliment each other on the original recording. This version includes both tab and chords so that the player can select parts depending on whether playing alone or accompanied by piano.

[Verse 1]
N.C. C Cmaj7/B Am C6/G F G G7 C (Riff) G G7
I bought half a case of wine three sweet and white three red and dry
C Cmaj7/B Am C6/G F G G7 C (Riff) G G7
I had a real nice time last night it's been so lonesome in my life
[Chorus 1]
C Cmaj7/B Am Em F G G7 C (Riff) G G7
There are stronger men, richer men, miracle men you could have your pick of any one of them
C Cmaj7/B Am Em F
but whatever becomes, I stick to my guns, there certainly weren't any luckier ones
G G7 (Fingerpicking Guitar Intro)
luckier than I was in your arms
[Verse 2]
C Cmaj7/B Am C6/G F G G7 C (Riff) G G7
I thought I'd write a song for wine It would be in three-quarter time
C Cmaj7/B Am C6/G F G G7 C (Riff) G G7
Instead I wrote a song for you It's just a single little tune
[Chorus 2]
C Cmaj7/B Am Em F G
It's a thank you note. Something I wrote. Sometimes emotions get caught in my throat. I open my mouth
G7 C (Riff) G G7
up and the words turn around.
C Cmaj7/B Am Em F
The words can be kind. The words can confuse. In the end they're just something that melodies use. Much
G G7 (Fingerpicking Guitar Intro)
like the bottle to the vintage we choose.
[Verse 3]
C Cmaj7/B Am C6/G F G G7 C (Riff) G G7
La La La La La La La La Da Da Da Da Da Da Da Dee
C Cmaj7/B Am C6/G F G G7 (Fingerpicking Guitar Outro x 2)
