D                                          G          D 
well i bet you’d like to know how much she feels like you 

D                                    A 
and how her voice rings gently in my ear 

     A                              G               D 
well nights go by beside her but i wake up feeling blue 

                         A              D  
cause you're the one i’d rather call my dear 




G                                   D 
now the whiskey’s running dry and I cannot rest my eyes 

        A         A7                D   D7 
I’m the loneliest soul in this here bar 

        G                        D                  Bm

          D              A        D

        D                                G           D 
and the silver ring I bought for you now dwells in a drawer 

D                               A 
Its memory of your finger still remains 

    A                          G             D 
the window you left open as we lay upon your floor 

           D                 A                   D 
well if we tried again would things just end the same 





G                                   D 
now the whiskey’s running dry and I cannot rest my eyes 

        A         A7                D   D7 
I’m the loneliest soul in this here bar 

        G                        D                  Bm 
and the clock is pointing too oh baby what should i do 

          D              A        D 
cause you got me in them old time blues
