[Intro]
| D | D | A7 | A7 |
| D | D |

[Verse 1]
D G D
Once I lived a life of wine and roses
A7 D
And I drank a lot back then for one concern
G D
Success for me lay just around the corner
E7 E A7
I thought my social friends would help me make me turn

[Chorus]
D G D
But now I'm paying for the days of wine and roses
A7 D
A victim of the drunken life I chose
G D
Now all my social friends look down their noses
A7 D
Cause I kept the wine and threw away the rose

[Break]
| D A7 | A7 | A7 D | D |

[Verse 2]
D G D
I stood by and watched the bottle take control of me
A7 D
The turn I made was not the one I'd planned
G D
And I watched my social standings slip away from me
E7 E A7
While I watched the bottle slowly take command

[Chorus]
D G D
And now I'm paying for the days of wine and roses
A7 D
A victim of the drunken life I chose
G D
Now all my social friends look down their noses
A7 D
Cause I kept the wine and threw away the rose

[Outro]
A7 D
Cause I kept the wine and threw away the rose
