G                     D    Em         Bm             C            G        D
I could live my whole life without a phone call the likes of which I got today
G                D          Em         Bm          C            D      G   D
It was only my wife, said hello then goodbye, and told me she's going away
G        D            Em          Bm       C             G      D
I didn't cry, it was all cut and dried, I hung up before I realized
  G               D         Em          Bm  
I turned up the stereo, I walked to the window
    C              D              G     D
And stared at the storm clouds outside
       G         D            Em   Bm        C           G        D  
I play classical music when it rains. I play country when I am in pain.
      C            G                  B7               Em    D   C
Now I won't play Beethoven 'cause the mood's just not right
  G               D            G    D  Em  Bm  C  D  G  D
I feel like Hank Williams tonight

       G          D          Em     Bm         C          G             D
There's no explanation, not even a reason, no talk of the good times we had
G                 D       Em            Bm     C             D         G   D
Was it me, was it her? I don't know for sure. That's why I'm feeling so bad
       G          D    Em   Bm         C           G       D
I play jazz when I am confused. I play country whenever I lose.
      C        G       B7               Em    D   C
But Byrd's saxophone just won't sound right.
   G              D           G   D    Em  Bm  C  D  G  D
I feel like Hank Williams tonight.

G                 D         Em               Bm
Lately I've been thinking I just might quit drinking,
    C            G           D 
but now I don't know all and all.
G                  D           Em         Bm 
I just might stay home and get drunk all alone,
     C            D          G
and punch a few holes in the wall
       G            D        Em   Bm        C               G        D
When I'm real high I play rock&roll, I play country when I'm losing control
      C            G              B7          Em    D   C
I don't play Chuck Berry quite as much as I like
   G              D                     G   D  Em   Bm  
But I sure feel like Hank Williams tonight
   C              D         G    D   Em    Bm  C  D  G  
I feel like Hank Williams tonight.
