[Verse]
C                 E
Lights low as the fire dies
Am
My hand on a pistol, lonely at my side
    C                  E
And I'm lost now my husband out the door 
   Am
He took the children with him

He cant take it anymore
        C
Told me he'd come home
     E               Am
Come back again if I let the liquor go, but I cant let go of my sin

[Chorus]
        G
Cause I went to the bottle
      D
And I drank that bottle dry
      Am
And I covered up my anger, I've frozen up inside
      D
And I open up that door, the devil came inside
                          Am   D  Am
Lit the fuse, to which my mind is tied

[Interlude]
C E Am

[Verse]
C             E
Oh god I cant feel it anymore
   Am
My hand is all a trembling on my stillhouse door
     C         E
As I walk into her sweet air
         Am
Where my heart should be abeatin I can only feel a tear
      C
And I pray to my god above
         Am
That I'd burn her down to get back the one I love
        G
Cause I went to the bottle
      D
And I drank that bottle dry
      Am
And I covered up my anger, I've frozen up inside
      D
And I opened up that door and the devil came inside
                          Am   D  Am
Lit the fuse, to which my mind is tied

[Interlude]
C E Am

[Verse]
C                  E
It's dark now, I'm on my knees
  Am
I pray to my god give me the strength I need
           C                    E
I got to light that match and burn her down
  Am
I got too much to live for, fore they put me in the ground
         C             E
And I'll go back to my childrens arms
    Am
And watch the ashes rise and go up and meet the stars

[Chorus]
         G
And I'll go from the bottle
         D
And I'll leave that bottle dry
         Am
And I'll open up my anger, I've frozen up inside
         D
And I'll open up that door, the devil wont oblige
                          Am   D  Am
Cut the fuse, to which my mind is tied
            Am   D  Am
To which my mind is tied
