1. In the corner of the bar there stands a jukebox,
                                             E5    - A5
    with the best of country music, old and new,
                              A5             A5
    you can hear your five selections for a quarter,
                         A5                     D5
    and somebody else's songs when yours are through. 
           D5
    I got good Kentucky whiskey on the counter,
                              D5               G5
    and my friends around to help me ease the pain,
                                                D5
    'til some button-pushing cowboy plays that love song,
         E5              A5            D5
    and here I am just missing you again. 
 - - - - - -   D5                E5 - A5
Please, Mr., please, don't play B -17,
       E5                A5                 G5 - D5                                 
it was our song, it was his song, but it's over.
                             E5          A5
Please, Mr., please, if you know what I mean,
           E5                  A5            D5
I don't ever wanna hear that song again.
         D5 
2. If I had a dime for every time I held you,
                                                 E5    - A5
   though you're far away, you've been so close to me.
                              A5              A5
    I could swear I'd be the richest girl in Nashville,
                        A5            D5
    maybe even in the state of Tennessee. 
            D5
    But I guess I'd better get myself together ,
                                      D5               G5
    'cause when you left, you didn't leave too much behind,
                                                 D5
    just a note that said, "I'm sorry", by your picture,
          E5                    A5           D5
    and a song that's weighing heavy on my mind.
