Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Met you in a smokey bar
Playin' out of tune guitar
You were singin' right along
You were dressed up to the nines
Out of luck, and so was I
So I played your favorite song
[Chorus]
You said that the words weren't right
Said I change 'em every night
Was kinda there, I just messed up the ending
The girl, the bottle, the memory
[Verse 2]
Time came to settle down
Buy a house in a little town
Start workin' 9 to 5
Early nights and early rise
A simple dream and a simple life
But I wouldn't be tied down
[Chorus]
'Cause I had many roads to ride
You couldn't stop me if you tried
I could tell, you started to regret me
The girl, the bottle, the memory
[Bridge]
We've all got dreams to chase and lies to face
Baby, you've got yours, and I've got mine
Maybe in a different space, time and place
You might've changed your mind
Changed your mind
[Verse 3]
I heard you're changin' your last name
Kinda bought it back again
And there's a lot that went unsaid
You got a house in your home town
You got a man that sticks around
A baby waitin' to be fed
[Chorus]
I'm singin' in a smokey bar
Playin' out of tune guitar
Every night it comes right back to get me
The girl, the bottle
Another town, another song
Broken hearts, love gone wrong
Know we're done, but girl, please don't forget me
The girl, the bottle, the memory
[Outro]
Whoa, the girl, the bottle, the memory
Whoa, the memory
Oh, yeah
