G Em G Em Intro: //// //// //// //// G Em There's a stone, in yonder graveyard G G7 With my name carved in it deep C G It don't tell, my life story C G These things, it can't repeat Em I never had a family G G7 I never took a wife C G All I had, was a bottle C G And I drank away my life Chorus: Em So bury the bottle with me G G7 For it's what tore me down C G So I won't be a--lone tonight C G When they put me in the ground C G When they lower my body down Em A drunker, is a sinner G G7 On this, I place no doubt C G Oh the Lord, won't share his palace C G With the things he lives with--out Em For the bottle is the devil G G7 And drinking is his name C G Now the bottle, is what took my soul C G And petrified my brain Repeat Chorus Thanks to Gary W for tabs
