Bottle In The Hand Is Much Stronger Than The Man Chords

C
Will I ask my old buddy to call her on the phone

                                                     G7
He'll say I'm working late again once more she'll be alone

             C                            C7        F
But I'll sit here in this barroom just as long as I can

          C      F      C            G7                C
Cause the bottle in the hand is much stronger than the man


      F                                 C
After all I've said and done she should leave me on the run

                    F       C         G7
Cause I've hurt her just as much as I can

         C                            C7           F
But I'll keep up my sinful livin' and she'll go on forgivin'

              C      F      C            G7                C
She knows the bottle in the hand is much stronger than the man



I'd go home if I was able cause this night life's gettin' old

                                               G7
Like the food on the table our love is growing cold

        C                            C7             F
But she goes to bed each evening without her loving man

            C      F      C            G7                C
Because the bottle in the hand is much stronger than the man


      F                                 C
After all I've said and done she should leave me on the run

                    F     C          G7
Cause I've hurt her every way that I can

         C                            C7           F
But I'll keep up my sinful livin' and she'll go on forgivin'

              C      F      C            G7                C
She knows the bottle in the hand is much stronger than the man
