Smokey The Bar
Recorded by Hank Thompson
Written by Jet Penix and Hank Thompson
[Chorus]
C F
Smokey the bar lights dimly low
G7 C
It’s good that way cause heartaches don’t show
F
Each hand holds a glass each glass holds a beer
G7 C
Jukebox records play amid sorrow and cheer
[Verse 1]
F G7 C
Lots of them are happy they laugh and tell their jokes
D7 G7
While lots of them are here because they’re just lonely folks
C F
And then there are others whose hearts wear a scar
G7 C
But you can’t see them crying it’s old Smokey the bar
[Chorus]
F
Smokey the bar lights glowing dim
G7 C
They hardly notice when someone walks in
F
Order up your drink to the music that’s loud
G7 C
You’ll find a friend somewhere in the crowd
[Verse 2]
F G7 C
While the ashes are falling from the smoke that you inhale
D7 G7
There’s an old dream to recall or a new one that failed
C F
Should a tear betray your eye if memory slips to far
G7 C
Don’t tell them that you’re crying just say Smokey the bar
[Verse 2]
F G7 C
While the ashes are falling from the smoke that you inhale
D7 G7
There’s an old dream to recall or a new one that failed
C F
Should a tear betray your eye if memory slips to far
G7 C
Don’t tell them that you’re crying just say Smokey the bar
