Capo 4th Fret (to match original recording)
Intro: (F) (C) (F) (C)
(Am) Love is a mystery
(C) It's a tricky thing
(Am) It's more than a word
(C) More than a ring
(Dm) When the right thing (Am) turns to wrong
(Dm) Turns into a (Am) lonesome song
(Dm) And everybody (Am) knows how it goes when it (G) does
The (F) bottle holds the whiskey
The whiskey holds the man
The (C) man holds the bottle when it's all that's left
And the (F) left-hand lights what the right hand holds
The (C) smoke can't hide what the heart regrets
'Cause the (F) heart holds the memory
And the (G) memory holds thе past
And the (Am) past holds the woman
At the (F) bottom of thе glass
So I don't have a (C) problem
If I don't see the (G) bottom
(F) (C)
I played it all over
Over in my mind
I'm lookin' for the reasons
I just can't find
Wish I knew what I could blame
Without a moment I could name
I don't have a thing that I recall
(Repeat Chorus)
(Solo)
'Cause the (F) heart holds the memory
And the (G) memory holds thе past
And the (Am) past holds the woman
At the (F) bottom of the glass
So I don't have a (C) problem
If I don't see the (G) bottom
Oh, the (F) hurt's holdin' me
And (G) I'm holdin' on
To a (Am) hundred-proof truth
And a (F) hope that's long gone
So I don't have a (C) problem
If I don't see the (G) bottom
(F) (C) (F) (C)
