Farther Down The Bottle
Tuning:E A D G B E
Key:E
Capo:2nd fret
[Intro]
| D Dsus4 | D Dsus4 | D Dsus4 | D* ||
[Verse 1]
D A7
Gotta half a mind to leave you, a half a mind to stay,
G G** D D
and a half of pine to help me make my mind up on the way.
D D7 G G
Maybe I’m not ready to reconcile our family’s neon signs
D A7 D D*
but farther down the bottle, the more I long to see that county line.
[Chorus]
D D7 G G
A little farther down the bottle, a little closer to the flames,
Em A7 D D
well, in my mind I'm standing, screen door slamming in my face.
D D7 G G
Now you wanna talk things over, say you’re still in love with me,
D A7 D D*
a little farther down the bottle and I might just agree.
[Verse 2]
D A7
I gave you everything you wanted, still you didn't stay,
G G** D D
now the love you thought you’d found has finally made you go astray.
D D7 G G
Now the bottle’s almost empty and that ole lonesome wind still blows,
D A7 D D
down to one last cigarette but three more miles to go.
[Bridge]
Bm G
Now, the bottle is empty and the love we had is gone,
Em** G** A7 A7
you broke my heart too many times, so, I’ll be moving on.
[End-Chorus]
D D7 G G
A little farther down the bottle, a little closer to the flames,
Em A7 D D
well, in my mind I'm standing, screen door slamming in my face.
D D7 G G
Now you wanna talk things over, say you’re still in love with me,
D A7 D D
a little farther down the bottle and I might just agree.
Em A7 (D)
a little farther down the bottle and I might just agree.
