[Verse 1]
E E/B E E/B
She unscrews the top off her new whiskey bottle,
E E/B E B7
And shuffles a - bout in her candlelit hovel,
B7 B7/F# B7 B7/F#
Like some kind of witch, with blue fingers in mittens,
B7 B7/F# B7 E
She smells like the cat, and the neighbours she sickens!
[Verse 2]
E E/B E E/B
Her black and white TV has long seen a picture,
E7 E7/G# A A/E
The cross on the wall is a permanent fixture,
A B7 B7/F# B7 B7/F#
The postman de - livers the final re - minders,
B7 B7/F#
She sells off her silver,
A * G#m F#m E E/B E E/B
And poo - dles in china!
[Chorus]
E E/B F#m7 F#m7/C#
Drinks to re - member I, me and my - self,
B7 B7/F# B7 E
And winds up the clock, and knocks dust from the shelf,
E E/B F#m7 F#m7/C#
Home is a love that I miss very much,
B7 B7/F#
So the past has been bottled,
A G#m F#m E E/B E E/B
And la - beled with love!
[Verse 3]
E E/B E E/B
During the wartime, an A - merican pilot...
E E/B E B7
...Made every air-raid a time of ex - citement,
B7 B7/F# B7 B7/F#
She moved to his prairie, and married the Texan,
B7 B7/F# B7 E
She learnt from a distance how love was a lesson!
[Verse 4]
E E/B E E/B
He became drinker, and she became mother,
E7 E7/G# A A/E
She knew that, one day, she'd be one or the other,
A B7 B7/F# B7 B7/F#
He ate himself older, drank himself dizzy,
B7 B7/F#
Proud of her features,
A G#m F#m E E/B E E/B
She kept her - self pretty!
[Chorus]
E E/B F#m7 F#m7/C#
Drinks to re - member I, me and my - self,
B7 B7/F# B7 E
And winds up the clock, and knocks dust from the shelf,
E E/B F#m7 F#m7/C#
Home is a love that I miss very much,
B7 B7/F#
So the past has been bottled,
A G#m F#m E E/B E
And la - beled with love!
[Verse 5]
(Eb) E E/B E E/B
He, like a cowboy, died drunk in a slumber,
E E/B E B7
Out on the porch in the middle of summer,
B7 B7/F# B7 B7/F#
She crossed the ocean, back home to her family,
B7 B7/F# B7 E
But they had re - tired to roads that are sandy!
[Verse 6]
E E/B E E/B
She moved home a - lone, without friends or re - lations,
E7 E7/G# A A/E
Lived in a world full of age reser - vation,
A B7 B7/F# B7 B7/F#
Her moth-eaten armchairs, she'd say that she'd sod all,
B7 B7/F#
Who friends who had left her...
A G#m F#m E E/B E E/B
...To drink from the bottle!
[Chorus]
E E/B F#m7 F#m7/C#
Drinks to re - member I, me and my - self,
B7 B7/F# B7 E
And winds up the clock, and knocks dust from the shelf,
E E/B F#m7 F#m7/C#
Home is a love that I miss very much,
B7 B7/F# A G#m F#m E
So the past has been bottled, and la - beled with love!
[Chorus]
E E/B F#m7 F#m7/C#
Drinks to re - member I, me and my - self,
B7 B7/F# B7 E
Winds up the clock, and knocks dust from the shelf,
E E/B F#m7 F#m7/C#
Home is a love that I miss very much,
B7 B7/F# A G#m F#m E
So the past has been bottled, and la - beled with love,
B7 B7/F# A G#m F#m E
The past has been bottled, and la - beled with love,
B7
The past has been bottled,
A G#m F#m E E/B
And la - beled ...with ...love!
