  			D You G wrote Your Cheatin' D Heart about 
A gal like my D7 first ex-{A} wife 
You D Moan The Blues for G me and for D you 
Hank Williams, You A Wrote My D Life. 
 
D The Cold, Cold Heart and a G doubtful D mind 
I have known a D7 few my A self 
And the D gal that loved me G Half As D Much 
As she loved some-{A} body D else. 
 
Refrain: 
 
I've heard that blue old whipporwill, too 
And the Lonesome Whistle whine 
I know that feel; so cold, so real 
When The Blues Come Around at midnight. 
 
We've never met, I know and yet 
I know you well, My Friend 
And if ever I, get to heaven on high 
I hope you'll shake my hand. 
 
Refrain:
