[A]
[D]
Here I sit [G] on the back road [D] in a church down the street,
not far from [G] the place [D] where we [A] [D] used to meet.
[G] And it's finally [D] getting through to [Am] me.
[G] You've found [Dm] the [G] one you love,
so [A] I'll go back to the place that I [Em] keep [D] thinking of.
It's not [G] a fancy place, a tavern in [D] the lonely part of town,
[A] where lonely people find someone [D] and hope to settle down.
But fate [G] dealt me the blow that I can't [D] understand.
[A] Here I sit on the back road while you wet
[D] [F#m]
[A] another's beauty days.
You'd [D]
never dream, but [G] after many years,
I may still [A] be [D] waiting there [A] with [D] just a [G#m] bottle [G] and two glasses
right [D] next to your favorite chair.
For who knows, you might outlive him, [G] he might [Am] even [G] do you wrong.
[A] And there I'll sit in this tavern waiting for you [D] all alone.
It's [G] not a fancy place, a tavern in the [D] lonely part of town,
[A] where lonely people find someone [D] and hope to settle down.
