Chris Stapleton - The Bottom Chords

[intro]
A  E  A  E

[verse 1]
C#m
 Love is a mystery
E
 It's a tricky thing
C#m
 It's more than a word
E
 More than a ring
F#m                    C#m
 When the right thing turns to wrong
F#m            C#m
 Turns into a lonesome song
F#m             C#m                        B
 And everybody knows how it goes when it does

[chorus]
    A
The bottle holds the whiskey
A
The whiskey holds the man
    E
The man holds the bottle when it's all that's left
        A
And the left hand lights what the right hand holds
    E
The smoke can't hide what the heart regrets
           A
'Cause the heart holds the memory
        B
And the memory holds thе past
        C#m
And the past holds the woman
       A
At the bottom of thе glass
                     E
So I don't have a problem
                     B
If I don't see the bottom

[guitar solo]
  A  E

[verse 2]
C#m
 I played it all over
E
 Over in my mind
C#m
 I'm lookin' for the reasons
E
 I just can't find
F#m                C#m
 Wish I knew what I could blame
F#m                C#m
 Without a moment I could name
F#m              C#m             B
 I don't have a thing that I recall

[chorus]
    A
The bottle holds the whiskey
A
The whiskey holds the man
    E
The man holds the bottle when it's all that's left
        A
And the left hand lights what the right hand holds
    E
The smoke can't hide what the heart regrets
           A
'Cause the heart holds the memory
        B
And the memory holds thе past
        C#m
And the past holds the woman
       A
At the bottom of thе glass
                     E
So I don't have a problem
                     B
If I don't see the bottom

[guitar solo]
A  E  A  E

[chorus]
           A
'Cause the heart holds the memory
        B
And the memory holds the past
        C#m
And the past holds the woman
       A
At the bottom of the glass
                     E
So I don't have a problem
                     B
If I don't see the bottom
        A
Oh, the hurt's holdin' me
    B
And I'm holdin' on
     C#m
To a hundred-proof truth
      A
And a hope that's long gone
                     E
So I don't have a problem
                     B
If I don't see the bottom

[outro]
