D
Well, there's a devil in the bottle, staring straight at me
Daring me to reach out, but I know he's testing me
G
If I take just one sip, I become that devil's son
D
Act a fool, sell my soul before God and everyone

    A        G                           D
Oh Lord, I know, I only hurt the ones I love

D
I'm walking down this dead end road, all alone and by myself
Wish I could blame the whiskey, but I can only blame myself
G
Running out of chances, and Lord that's such a crime
   D
I got to find the answer before I lose my mind

    A                  G        A                        G
Oh Lord its a crying shame, oh Lord I've caused so much pain
                        D
I only hurt the ones I love

           G
There's a devil in a bottle that just won't let me be
    D
So many times I've been hurting my soul and family
    G                        A
But I got free on the day I fought the
              D
Devil in the bottle

The next time that ol' devil tries to get the best of me
I'll smash that bottle against the wall and know I'm finally free
There's a devil in a bottle that just won't let me be
There's so many times I let him hurt me
I got free the day I fought the
Devil in the bottle [3x
