Verse: 
Yeah, 
Am7    G     D      Am7     Em 
Living in my rented room, I sharply had a fall 
Am7    G      D    Am7    Em 
I fell into a bottle, and no-one heard my call 
And my father said, 
Am7       G          D         Am7            Em
"Why do you think that you stumbled into this bottle that you fell?", 
And I says 
Am7       G               D    Am7         Em 
"Father I think I lost my balance throwing pennies in the holy well". 
Chorus: 
         C          G                   Bm       Em
Into the bottle you can fall and there be no one there at all 
             C         G                           Bm     Em
Well you can whine and you can pray, but its up to you to say no way  
Verse: 
   Am7 G        D         Am7           Em 
I came across a friend of mine who had, plunged and sank deep down 
      Am7      G    D      Am7             Em 
And I wondered if I knew him, because his mind had turned around 
      Am7      G          D         Am7           Em
So I sat for a while with this stranger, he was a shell of what he'd once been 
      Am7        G        D   Am7            Em
And I thought of all the alcohol and all the pain and greed that i've seen 
Chorus: 
         C          G                   Bm       Em
Into the bottle you can fall and there be no one there at all 
             C         G                          Bm     Em
Well you can whine and you can pray, but its up to you to say no way 
Am7 G D Dsus4 Am7 Em 
                  No way, 
Verse: 
Am7     G   D          Am7          Em 
Mothers all around the world try to teach your children to stay 
   Am7       G             D   Am7        Em 
To stay well away from the bottle, if you dont want to watch decay 
Am7          G            D    Am7               Em
Decay of the mind and the soul aswell, theres no need to go through that pain 
Am7         G      D    Am7             Em 
Mothers you wanted your children not to drown in the acid rain 
Chorus: 
         C          G                   Bm       Em
Into the bottle you can fall and there be no one there at all 
             C         G                           Bm   Em
Well you can whine and you can pray, but its up to You, yes it is
           Bm             Em

          Bm         Em 
Its up to you yes it is,
