G C D G Tricks, I've pulled some good ones in my time G C D G And games, I've played 'em with the best of minds Bm C I filled my pockets full of silver and gold Bm C D Then walked out on love when love left me cold G G/F# Em D Now I'm a man in a bottle, a bottle of tears C C/B Am D Caught up in a heartache, drowning in fear G G/F# Em D I’m a man in a bottle of tears C D C Bm C D G I battle my way to the top and I bottle my way to the bottom Fame, I had my friends, I had it all And what a shame, there's not a soul that I can call They all love me when I'm acting the fool But now they look at me like I'm no longer cool Chorus Oh, I battle my way to the top and I bottle my way to the bottom
