Well, [Bm] I'm a-sittin' down in the San Antonio
[D] Waitin' on an eight o'clock train
[Em] My woman left me here [D] last night
Things ain't been quite the same
[Bm] I gotta get back to Dallas
[Em] And [D] top a few loose ends
[Bm] I'm gonna [Em] work a week, I'll make a hundred dollars
I'll [D] hit the road again
So [G] I don't want you to think
That you're the first one
[D] To leave me out here on my own
[G] Cause this ain't [F#m] gonna be the first [Em] time
This old [A] cowboy [D] spent the night alone

[Bm] Well, [Em] honey, I've been a fool, but a bigger fool
I [D] can't remember when I've been
Just to [Em] open up my heart
And [D] let you all right in
[Em] But there's one thing in life
That [D] ain't hard for me to do
[Em] That's as soon as I kiss the lips of another woman
[D] I'm gonna forget all about you
[G] So I don't want you to think
That you're the first one
To [D] leave me out here on my own

I [Bm] don't [Em] believe it'd be one in a whole bunch
[D] I'd give a hoot about it
[G] So I don't want you to think
