Verse
E E7 A E E/A
My life was as empty as the bottle by my bed
E F#M B
My friends turned into strangers and I was all but dead
E E7 A E E/A
Jesus came and found me there that day those demons bled
E A E
when my life was as empty as the bottle by my bed
My first taste of the spirit, it brought me to my knees
I knew that I was helpless, I prayed Lord help me please
each time was the last time, that's what I always said
when my life was as empty as the bottle by my bed
Chorus
A E
By my bed, everything seemed further out of reach
A
And in my head, oh I found it hard to practice what I
B A
preached
E E7 A E
And now I'm going back home, it's down this path I'm led
E B E
And I'm no longer empty like the bottle by my bed
Sometimes this road gets lonesome and I wish that I could fly
So don't be afraid to stop me when I pass you by
We'll sit and watch the sun go down as the waters turn to red
And if you'd like i could tell you all about the bottle by my bed
Chorus
Thank God that I'm not empty, like the bottle by my bed
