The Bottom

The Bottom Performed by Charlie Robison Written by Waylon Payne There's alot of chord walkup/walkdown that Charlie does in this song and I can't quite put all of them in the tab. Just listen to the song a few times and you'll get it. He also plays alternating bass strings then strums the rest of the chords most of the time. D Elevator operator D A Look at me and smile a weary smile G You know my face could easily decieve A The wisest of them all D Are you going to the penthouse D B7 E Or the condo that lies just beyond the chapel doors G A He just smiled and softly told me no D I'm going to the bottom Chorus: D B7 I'm going all the way down E To the bottom G So turn the music up real high A D And let the sweetest benedictine liquor flow B7 E No need to worry about tomorrow Cause you're not here G A I'm going all the way down D To the bottom D Rainy streets, Wet memory D A Find a place inside to pass the time G The doug serves up my brandy and I drink A And pray your picture fades D You dressed in black D You turned your back B7 E On the only heart that ever loved you so G A The bells rang on the day you died D I'm headin to the bottom Chorus
