Verse:
Yeah,
Am7 G D Am7 Em
Living in my rented room, I sharply had a fall
Am7 G D Am7 Em
I fell into a bottle, and no-one heard my call
And my father said,
Am7 G D Am7 Em
"Why do you think that you stumbled into this bottle that you fell?",
And I says
Am7 G D Am7 Em
"Father I think I lost my balance throwing pennies in the holy well".
Chorus:
C G Bm Em
Into the bottle you can fall and there be no one there at all
C G Bm Em
Well you can whine and you can pray, but its up to you to say no way
Verse:
Am7 G D Am7 Em
I came across a friend of mine who had, plunged and sank deep down
Am7 G D Am7 Em
And I wondered if I knew him, because his mind had turned around
Am7 G D Am7 Em
So I sat for a while with this stranger, he was a shell of what he'd once been
Am7 G D Am7 Em
And I thought of all the alcohol and all the pain and greed that i've seen
Chorus:
C G Bm Em
Into the bottle you can fall and there be no one there at all
C G Bm Em
Well you can whine and you can pray, but its up to you to say no way
Am7 G D Dsus4 Am7 Em
No way,
Verse:
Am7 G D Am7 Em
Mothers all around the world try to teach your children to stay
Am7 G D Am7 Em
To stay well away from the bottle, if you dont want to watch decay
Am7 G D Am7 Em
Decay of the mind and the soul aswell, theres no need to go through that pain
Am7 G D Am7 Em
Mothers you wanted your children not to drown in the acid rain
Chorus:
C G Bm Em
Into the bottle you can fall and there be no one there at all
C G Bm Em
Well you can whine and you can pray, but its up to You, yes it is
Bm Em
Its up to you, oooh yes it is,
Bm Em
Its up to you yes it is,
Bm Em
Its up to you's, to say no way
C G Bm Em
No waaay...
C G Bm Em
No waaay...Nah nah nah
