[00:00.00]The Bottle Let Me Down - Merle Haggard
[00:16.51]Each night I leave the bar room when it's over
[00:22.13]
[00:24.12]Not feeling any pain at closing time
[00:29.44]
[00:31.76]But tonight your memory found me much too sober
[00:36.92]
[00:39.35]Couldn't drink enough to keep you off my mind
[00:44.76]
[00:47.00]Tonight the bottle let me down
[00:51.89]
[00:54.82]And let your memory come around
[00:59.90]
[01:02.30]The one true friend I thought I'd found
[01:07.34]
[01:09.95]Tonight the bottle let me down
[01:15.41]
[01:32.93]I've always had a bottle I could turn to
[01:38.64]
[01:40.63]And lately I've been turnin' every day
[01:45.80]
[01:48.21]But the wine don't take effect the way it used to
[01:53.50]
[01:55.86]And I'm hurtin' in old familiar ways
[02:00.91]
[02:03.50]Tonight the bottle let me down
[02:08.55]
[02:11.15]And let your memory come around
[02:16.48]
[02:18.89]The one true friend I thought I'd found
[02:23.85]
[02:26.57]Tonight the bottle let me down
[02:31.98]
[02:34.32]Tonight the bottle let me down
