With fire in my veins I laid down to rest
F C
Not carein' if I live or die
A#
Woke up a freezing rain pouring down
F C
So hard I can't open my eyes
F G7
I been chased from the yards with dogs at my heels
F G7 C
Searchin' for shelter at times
A#
But there's nothin' so hard for a man on the bum
C G7 C
As the time between bottles of wine
G7 C
The time between bottles of wine
D7 C
Beggin' for pennies for just one taste
G7 D7
Of the nectar that kills a mans soul
C
Sweet piece of mind excusing my pride
G7 D7
Just something to keep out the cold
G7 A7
It's too late for me to start living again
G7 A7 D7
The good life is too far behind
C
I never remember the things that I had
D7 A7 D7
Till the time between bottles of wine
Am D7 G7
The time between bottles of wine
D7 C
If momma could see me she wouldn't believe
G7 D7
I even resemble her son
C
She worked all her life to make me a man
G7 D7
And she's proud of the job that she's done
G7 A7
What one love created another destroyed
G7 A7 D7
It’s a story older than time
C
The tale of a man who just can't stand
D7 Am D7
The time between bottles of wine
