**Tune down half-step **
[Intro]
G D G D
[Verse]
G
Met you in a smoky bar
D
Playing out a tune on guitar
G C
You were singing right along
G
You were dress up to the nines
D
Out of luck and so was I
G C
So I played your favourite song
[Chorus]
G
You said that the words weren't right
D
I said change them every night
G C
I was kind of there, I just messed up the ending
G D G
The girl, the bottle, the memory
[Verse]
G
Time came to settle down
D
Buy a house in a little town
G C
Start working nine to five
G
Early nights and early risin'
D
A simple dream and a simple life
G C
But I wouldn't be tied down
[Chorus]
G
Cause I have many roads to ride
D
You couldn't stop me if you tried
G C
I could tell it started to regret me
G D G G
The girl, the bottle, the memory
[Bridge]
Em G D
We all got dreams to chase and lies to face
Em G D C
Baby you've got yours and I've got mine
G Em A
Maybe in a different space, time, and place
D
You might of changed your mind,
G
changed your mind
[Instrumental]
G D G C
[Verse]
G
I heard you're changing your last name
D
It kind bought it back again
G C
And there's a lot that went unsaid
G
You got a house in your home town
D
You got a man that sticks around
G C
A baby waiting to be fed
[Chorus]
G
I'm singing in a smoky bar
D
playing an out of tune guitar
G C
Every night it comes right back to get me
G D
The girl, the bottle,
G
Another town, another song
D
broken hearts and love gone wrong
G C
I know we're done, girl please don't forget me
G D Em A
The girl, the bottle, the memory
G D G D
Ooh The girl, the bottle, the memory
C D
Ooh the memory
[Outro]
