Kris Kristofferson - From the bottle to the bottom 
 
 
               
 
(verse 1) 
     G 
You ask me if I'm happy now 
                               D 
That's good as any joke I've heard 
 
It seems that since I've seen you last 
                                   G 
I done forgot the meaning of the words 
 
If happiness is empty rooms 
 
And drinkin' in the afternoon 
                               G 
Well I suppose I'm happy as a clam 
    D 
But if it's got a thing to do 
 
With smilin' of forgettin' you 
                                      G 
Well I don't guess that I could say I am 
 
G Did you ever see a down and outer waking up alone D Without a blanket on to keep him from the dew When the water from the weeds has soaked the paper G He's been puttin' in his shoes to keep the ground from comin' through And his future feels as empty as the pocket in his pants C Because he's never seen a single dream come true D That's the way that I've been feelin' since the day I started falling from the bottle to the bottom stool by stool G Learnin' hard to live with losin' you
(verse 2) You wonder if I'm better off With freedom now to do the things I choose With all my times my own and I got nothin' left but sleepin' time to lose There's no one here to carry on If I stay out the whole night long Or give a tankerous damn if I don't call I'm livin' like I wanted to And doin' things I wanna do And nothin' means a thing to me at all (chorus) G Did you ever see a down and outer waking up alone D Without a blanket on to keep him from the dew When the water from the weeds has soaked the paper G He's been puttin' in his shoes to keep the ground from comin' through And his future feels as empty as the pocket in his pants C Because he's never seen a single dream come true D That's the way that I've been feelin' since the day I started falling from the bottle to the bottom stool by stool G - D - G Learnin' hard to live with losin' you
