Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[G][Bm][B][C][G][D][G][Em]

[Verse 1]
I [G]met her one
[B]evenin' in a [C]bar room downtown
[G]She was the pic[A]ture of tru[D]th
Her [Gm]shoulders were [B]sagged and
her [C]head was bowed [G]down
Like [A]me she was livin' the blues
[D]

[Verse 2]
[Em]
[D]When the mus[G]ic had end[B]ed
and the [C]crowd dwindled [G]down
And we were [A]the last lonely [D]two
We [G]left with each [B]other
when [C]nothin' was [G]left
And [A]nothin' left better to [D]do

[Verse 3]
And it was [G]fun while it [B]lasted
but it [C]didn't last [G]long
Before we [A]knew it the thrill was all [D]gone
And [G]we both wound up [B]singin'
[Cdim]the same [C]lonesome [G]song
It was fun while it lasted,
but [D]it didn't last [G]long

[Interlude 1]
[G][Em][D][G][B][C][G][D][G][Em]

[Verse 4]
[G]I had a[B] woman and s[C]he had a[G] man
Before we [A]both lost it [D]all
When [G]I thought of h[B]er that's
when [C]she thought of [G]him
And [A]I never could stand that t[D]hought

[Verse 5]
It was [G]fun while it [B]lasted but it
[C]didn't last [G]long
Before the [A]mornin' I'd
packed up and [D]gone
And we [G]said goodbye [B]singin'
[C]the same worn out [G]song
It was fun while it lasted but it [D]didn't
last [G]long

[Outro 1]
[G][Em][G][B][C][G][D][G]
