Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[G][D][G][Bm][Em][G][A][D]

[Verse 1]
Here it [D]comes,
another [G]heartache
Bringing me [Em]pain and
[Asus4]misery[A]
It's [G]peekin' 'round the
bend and sayin'
[D]"Hey, my friend, sit [Em]down,
and keep me [A]company"

[Verse 2]
Always [D]seems to me
That [G]I'll make the biggest
[Em]fool and [A]tragedy
Tellin' [Bm]you,
this time I'm gonna [Em]stay in line
[G]No one's a- gonna [A]bother me
[D]

[Verse 3]
Think about [A]the times, if [G]you can,
and [D]I'll let you
Remember the [A]rhymes that [G]we
talked when we [D]were new
Now, I can recall [Em]the days when [G]I'd
wake up to find you be[D]side me
But you could [Em]have stayed[A]
'Stead of [G]takin' off [D]that [A]way
Here [D]it comes,

[Verse 4]
another [G]heartache
Bringing me [Em]pain and [A]misery
It's [G]peekin' 'round the
bend and sayin'
[D]"Hey, my friend, sit [Em]down,
keep me com[A]pany"

[Verse 5]
Always [D]seems to me
That I'll [G]make the biggest
[Em]fool and [A]tragedy
Tellin' [Bm]you,
this time I'm gonna [Em]stay in line
No [G]one's a- gonna [A]bother me
[D]

[Verse 6]
And I can't [F#m]ever c[Bm]hange it
[G]Hard luck is my last [D]name
If I try to re[F#m]arrange [Bm]it
I [G]wished I could, [D]it ain't no good
Why [Em]do things always t[A]urn out
just the same?
[D]

[Verse 7]
[G][D]
Well, there goes an[G]other [D]day
and I [G]wonder [D]why[A]
You and [G]I keep telling l[D]ies[A][D]
I can't believe in [G]what [D]you say
'Cause to[G]morrow's [D]lul[A]laby
Can't pa[G]cify my lonesome [D]crying

[Interlude 1]
[G][D][A]
[G][D][G][D]
[G][D]

[Verse 8]
Well, [D]make believe is [G]all you know
[D]And to mak[G]e believe is [D]a gam[A]e,
a child's [G]rein
You've changed your [D]name
So sadly I [G]watched [D]the show
And [G]seen what [D]you be[A]came
Truth is [G]the shame, yeah,
too much [D]pain

[Interlude 2]
[D][G][D][Em][A][G]

[Verse 9]
Well, there's just [D]a little bit of magic in
the country music we're [C]singin'
So let's be[G]gin
We're [D]bringin' you back down
home, where the folks are [C]happy
Sittin', pickin' and [G]a- grinnin'
Casu[A]ally, you and [D]me
We'll pick up the [C]pieces, aha
[D]

[Verse 10]
Somebody [C]yelled out at [D]me
Country mu[G]sic and com[C]pany
Kind [Em]of makes [G]it on
[C]a Sunday af[G]ter[D] noon
Picnic [C]lunches of yester[D]day should still
have a [G]place in your heart [C]today
Think it [Em]over
[G]'Cause we'll all[C] be goin'
[D]home [C]so soon
[G]

[Verse 11]
Well, there's [D]just a little bit of magic in
the country music we're [C]singin'
So let's be[G]gin
We're [D]bringin' you back down home,
where the folks are [C]happy
Sittin', pickin' and [G]a- grinnin'
Casu[A]ally, you and [D]me
We'll pick up the [C]pieces,
[G]aha
