Tree frog singinnn' in a big, black oak 
Spanish moss swinginnnn' like a – a tattered ghooooost
Fog creeps innnn from – sea to shore
El-Like your – blood that kept seeping – across the floor

CH 1:
Bottoms up – Lemme fill your cup
With your favourite single malt
Bottoms up – Lemme fill your cup
Here's to you – Face down on the rocks
Well, you could nnnever get eNNNough
Had to bruise me to be tough
Here’s a bottle h-of the good stuff - Bottoms up

I see your face - in the haunted moon
It follows me around like an – an old tattoo
I tried to hide a-but I huh – I can't escape (1,b7, 5)
Uh So I – I brought your damn scotch and I poured it – all o(b7)ver (b2)your (1)grrrave

CH 2:
Bottoms up – Lemme fill your cup
With your favourite single malt
Bottoms up – Drink up, drink up
Here's to you – Long may you rot
Yes, you could never get eNNNough
Had to bruise me to be tough
Here’s a bottle of the good stuff – Bottoms up
