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