[Intro]

B5

[Verse 1]

B5                             E5
Thanks and praises, thanks to Jesus
F#5                            B5
I bet on the Bottle of Smoke
B5                         E5
I went to hell and to the races
F#5                               B5
To bet on the Bottle of Smoke

B5                                 E5
The day being clear, the sky being bright
F#5                                B5
He came up on the left like a streak of light
B5                                     E5
Like a drunken fuck on a Saturday night
F#5                              B5
Up came the Bottle of Smoke

[Chorus]

B5                       E5
Twenty-fucking-five to one
F#5                               B5
Me gambling days are done
B5                                       E5
I bet on a horse called the Bottle of Smoke
F#5                 B5
And my horse won

[Verse 2]

B5                           E5
Stewards inquiries, swift and fiery
F#5                        B5
I had the Bottle of Smoke
B5                        E5
Inquisitions and suppositions
F#5                        B5
I had the Bottle of Smoke

B5                             E5
Fuck the stewards, a trip to Lourdes
F#5                                           B5
Might give the old fuckers the power of sight
B5                                                         E5
Screaming springers and stoppers and call out coppers
F#5                                               B5
But the money still gleams in my hand like a light

[Chorus]
