The Story
Kristie had been writing down lyric ideas for quite a while but had never quite completed a song. one night she found the chorus to "Bottle of Whiskey" in a bottle of wine. she took the idea to her trio “Girlz Rule” and along with Paul, the finished the song. Kristie’s plaintive vocals on the verses and chorus countered by her powerful, emotional rendering of the bridge have made this song a popular request at all of her shows “one more round, one more time"
Lyrics
CHORUS: Bottle of whiskey, bottle of wine, bottle of anything that’ll alter my mind Don’t wanna remember, don’t wanna forget Just wanna numb my mind for a little bit bottle of whiskey, bottle of wine, one more round, one more time VERSE I remember when we first met, three years gone and I can’t forget those quiet moments and the crazy nights The way I felt when I held you tight Where did we go wrong? When did it change? When did our love go and fade away? VERSE I’ve never loved like I love you I never gave all of me till I found you Now I have nothing, nothin’ left inside So I fill me up with wasted time CHORUS: Bottle of whiskey, bottle of wine, bottle of anything that’ll alter my mind Don’t wanna remember, don’t wanna forget Just wanna numb my mind for a little bit bottle of whiskey, bottle of wine, one more round, one more time BREAK (chorus chords) BRIDGE: I can hear the words “its over” I still hear the slammin’ door I can feel my heart exploding into pieces on the floor VERSE Have you moved on or are you like me? Drinking yourself out of a memory Can you even remember? Have you any regrets? Would the words “I’m sorry” ever pass your lips Bottle of whiskey, bottle of wine, bottle of anything that’ll alter my mind Don’t wanna remember, don’t wanna forget Just wanna numb my mind for a little bit Bottle of whiskey, bottle wine, one more round…
