[F]
[Bb] [C]
Every [F] day I tell [Bb] myself it's [C] temporary But [F]
[C] [B] [Bb] it's only cause [Gm] she's young that makes
[Bb] her want [C] another man Even [Gm] [F] though she makes [Bb] me feel [C] unnecessary
[B] [Bb] I've found a way [C] to help me [F]
[Bb] understand [F] I've got [Bb] this drinkin' thing
It [F] keeps from quakin' things I'll [Gm] tell you when, [Bb] who you've been with
[F] What you've done And it's [Bb] a lonely thing
But [F] it's the only thing You [Bb] keep a foolish [C] man in love
[F] Hangin' on I wait up at [Bb] home all lonely
[C] Ask her questions [Dm] [C] [B] [Bb] She'd probably tell the [Gm] truth
So [Bb]
I don't [C] even ask
[Bb] [F] So I sit here on [Bb] this bar stool
[C] Feelin' helpless [B] And [Bb] I wonder just [C] how long a [F] man can last
I've got [Bb] this drinkin' thing It [F] keeps from quakin' things
I'll [Gm] tell you when, [Bb] who you've been with What [F] you've done
[Bb] [F]
And it's [Bb] a lonely thing But [F] it's the only thing
You [Bb] keep a foolish [C] man in love [F] Hangin' on
I've got [Bb] this drinkin' thing It [F] keeps from quakin' things
[Gm] [Bb]
