Well I'm sitting here a glass so near filled with my one concern
G A7 D7
Oh bottle you've done led me to the point of no return
G D7 G C
You took away my happy days my life's a total wreck

You took the only things I owned so bottle take effect
C G
Take effect and take away these blues that drive me wild
C G D7
Take effect make me forget these troubles for a while
G D7 G C
Then just lead me to those lights of blue on the corner of regret
G D7 G
In some barroom I'll lose my gloom so bottle take effect
D7 G C
You took away my fortune while I drank away my pride

Humiliations my misfortune and there's no place left to hide
G D7 G C
The best place is the gutter there I won't need respect

Cause when in Rome you'll do as the Romans do oh bottle take effect
C G
Take effect and take away these blues that drive me wild
C G D7
Take effect make me forget these troubles for a while
G D7 G C
Then just lead me to those lights of blue on the corner of regret

In some barroom I'll lose my gloom so bottle take effect
