Lyrics
The Bottle and Me by Allan Byer & Dan Knoll Progression: G D Am C, G D C Am chorus 1 The bottle and me we’re old friends you see./ Helps me feel good, helps me feel free. Helps me deal with society./ The bottle and me, always there for me. verse 1 Sometimes it makes me sad./ Other times it kinda makes me glad. ‘Though it brings troubles and misery,/ I know it’s always waiting there for me. verse 2 All the times I wish I could quit./ Never could get a grip on it. Went to meetings almost every night./ Still came home looking for the light. repeat chorus 1 verse 3 Finally it got bad enough./ Losing jobs, cars and all kinds of stuff. Relationships going bad on me./ It was time for me to see. Bridge (Em C Em C D) Maybe it’s time to face the strife./ Got to make something of this life. I will follow where he leads - Me......... HP chorus Higher Power made a friend of me./ Helps me feel good, helps me feel free. Helps me deal with society./ Higher Power made a friend of me. verse 4 Now my heart and soul can see./ Turned my life over to my HP. We got a relationship today./ And all I got to do is pray. verse 5 Life is so much better today./ Turn my troubles over come what may. Have some peace and sanity./ ‘Cause I got that Higher Power in me. repeat HP chorus
