[NO INTRO] [Song begins with Verse 1] [Verse 1] Pick up the glass [acoustic guitar chord begins with verse ] And put it down I must pass on another round [Acoustic guitar begins pattern] Drinking might help me not to care Can I turn back once I get there Genie was my saving grace She brought love back into this place Now she's gone and I don't know How or why or where to go [Chorus] And I wonder where she is And who she's loving now 'Cause I just can't forget How she helped me out This lump that's in my throat The whiskey could help me swallow But I can't even drown the memory Of Genie in the bottle [Verse 2] [acoustic guitar continues] Oh, dear Lord, help me forget So I won't need another sip One more drink might numb this pain But turn my world upside down again [Chorus] And I wonder where she is And who she's loving now 'Cause I just can't forget How much she helped me out This lump that's in my throat The whiskey could help me swallow But I can't even drown the memory Of Genie in the bottle [Outro] [acoustic guitar solo strumming] This lump that's in my throat The whiskey could help me swallow But I can't even drown the memory Of Genie in the bottle [vocalist stops] [one final acoustic guitar chord resonates] Pick up the glass
