Tricks

C                   D7              G    Cadd9  G  Cadd9
   I've pulled some good ones in my time

    G     G7
And games

C                  D7               G     Cadd9  G  Cadd9
   I've played 'em with the best of minds

Bm                             C
   I filled my pockets full of silver and gold

     Bm                      C            D7
Then walked out on love when love left me cold
[Chorus]
           G        D/F#      Em        G7
Now, I'm a man in a bottle, a bottle of tears

C                   Bm    Am          D7
Caught up in a heartache, drowning in fear

      G        D/F#      Em    G7
I'm a man in a bottle of tears

  C            D          C    Bm
I battle my way to the top

      Am         D7        G      D/F#    Em    G7    C    D7
And I bottle my way to the bottom
G Cadd9 G Cadd9 [Verse 2]
G    G7
Fame

C           D7                G   Cadd9  G  Cadd9
   I had my friends, I had it all

           G     G7
And what a shame

C                D7              G    Cadd9  G  Cadd9
   There's not a soul that I can call

Bm                          C
   They all loved me when I acted a fool

Bm                              C             D7
   But now they look at me like I'm no longer cool
[Chorus]
             G        D/F#      Em        G7
'cause I'm a man in a bottle, a bottle of tears

C                   Bm       Am          D7
Caught up in a heartache and drowning in fear

      G        D/F#      Em    G7
I'm a man in a bottle of tears

  C          D            C    Bm
I battle my way to the top

      Am         D7        G        B7
And I bottle my way to the bottom, oh

  C          D            C    Bm
I battle my way to the top

      Am         D7        G      D/F#    Em    G7
And I bottle my way to the bottom
C D7 G
