Another great song from the pen of DAC. Yet another written for George Jones. hey performed this as a duet on his first greatest hits album. (For The Record) Tuning: Standard G 3 C 0 D 2 C/B 0 Dsus 3 Gsus 3 0 1 3 1 3 1 0 0 2 0 2 0 0 2 0 2 0 0 2 3 X 3 X 0 3 X X 3 X 3 (you may find it plesant to augment this with C/B Gsus and Dsus as passing chords but they are not integral to the song I provided sketches but they are not actually in the song) G C Last week he spent his whole paycheck on whiskey G D G And I know Friday night he'll do it all again G C G Oh he'll drink 'til he falls down and then order one more round D G and then go home with that bottle in his hand CHORUS: G C G and the only thing I can hold onto is This Bottle In My Hand D I know I'll never have to share it with any other man G C G I'm so glad you introduced us and I'll do the best I can D G To be faithful to this bottle in my hand N/C G C G She told George that changing diapers could sure become a drag D and to clean the house and cook for him was not her kind of bag G C G she said he needed someone who would love and understand D G and then she left him with this bottle in his hand (repeat the chorus and upon outro) G D G Yes we'll be thankful for this bottle in our hand
