Every [G] [A]
[D] day I [G] tell myself it's [A] temporary It's [Ab]
[G] only [Em] cause she's young [G] makes her want
[A] another man [D] Even though she [G] makes me feel [A] unnecessary
She [Ab] [G] found a way [A] to make me [D] understand
[G] I [Gbm]
[D] got [G] this drinkin' thing to [D] keep from thinkin' things
Like [Em] where you been, who [G] you been with, [D] what you've done
And it's [G] a lonely thing, but [D] it's the only thing
[G] Keep a foolish [A] man in love [D] hangin' on
[A]
[D] If I wait at home [G] I'll only [A] ask her questions
[Ab] [G] She'd probably tell [Em] the truth, [G] so I don't [A] even ask
So [D] I sit here [G] on this barstool [A] feelin' helpless
I [Ab]
[G] wonder just [A] how long a [D] man can [G] last
[D] I got [G] this drinkin' thing to keep [D] from thinkin' things
Like [Em] where you been, who [G] you been with, what [D] you've done
[G] [D] And it's [G] a lonely thing, but it's [D] the only thing
Keep [G] a foolish man [A] in love [D] hangin' on
