David Allan Coe – This Bottle In My Hand (Ukulele)

C                                        F
Last week he spent his whole paycheck on whiskey

           C                   G7         C  F C
And I know Friday night he'll do it all again

         C            F         C                F              C
And he'll drink 'til he falls down    and he’ll order one more round

     F       C               G7           C  F C
and then go home with that bottle in his hand

             C      F           C          F            C
and the only thing I can hold onto is this bottle in my hand

                    F       C                     G7
I know I'll never have to share it with any other man

        C         F    C                F             C
I'm so glad you introduced us and I'll do the best I can

 F     C               G7            C  F C
To be faithful to this bottle in my hand

C                                           F             C
She told George that changing diapers could sure become a drag

                                                           G7
and to clean the house and cook for him was not her kind of bag

     C                                F              C
she said he needed someone who would love and understand

     F        C                  G7            C  F C
and then she left him with that bottle in his hand

F             C                G7              F      C
Yes we'll be thankful for this bottle in our hand
