I thought the previous version was good but some chords were slightly wrong. --------CAPO 2---------- Original Key is E Major x|x|0|2|3|2 D x|0|2|2|2|0 A x|x|0|2|1|2 D7 3|5|5|4|3|3 G 2|4|4|2|2|2 F#m 0|2|2|0|0|0 Em 0|2|2|0|3|0 Em7 Intro: A D D She unscrews the top of a new whiskey bottle (D) A And shuffles about in her candle lit hovel, (A) Like some kind of witch with blue fingers in mittens (A) D She smells like the cat and the neighbours she sickens, D The black and white t.v. has long seen a picture D7 Em7 The cross on the wall is a permanent fixture, A The postman delivers the final reminders (A) G F#m Em D She sells off her silver and poodles in china. Chorus: (D) Em7 Drinks to remember, I me and myself A D And winds up the clock and knocks dust from the shelf (D) Em7 Home is a love that I miss very much A G F#m Em D So the past has been bottled and labelled with love. [ Tab from: http://www.guitaretab.com/s/squeeze/326664.html ] D During the war time an american pilot (D) A Made every air raid a time of excitement, (A) She moved to his prairie and married the texan (A) D She learnt from a distance how love was a lesson, (D) He became drinker and she became mother D7 Em7 She knew that one day she'd be one or the other, A He ate himself older, drunk himself dizzy A G F#m Em D Proud of her features, she kept herself pretty. (Chorus) D He like a cowboy died drunk in a slumber (D) A Out on the porch in the middle of summer, (A) She crossed the ocean back home to her family (A) D But they had retired to roads that were sandy, (D) She moved home alone without friends or relations D7 Em7 Lived in a world full of age reservation, A On moth eaten armchairs she'd say that she's sod all (A) G F#m Em D The friends who had left her to drink from the bottle. Chorus x2 A G F#m Em D The past has been bottled and labelled with love A G F#m Em D The past h________as been bottled..... and labelled with love D (Fade out) (I think it might play the chorus chords while fading. I end on D) |
