INTRO:

Am Em F G

C F

I was sitting in my hotel room

G C

Strumming my old guitar

Am Em

Not much to do when you're far away

F G

Playing some smoky bar

C F

I was feeling a little empty

G C

And feeling a little blue

Am Em

When the maid came in and asked me

F G FEmD

If she could do my room

C F

I put down my old guitar

G C

And she gave me a smile

Am Em

She had a crusty voice and a drinker's look

F G

But she had a friendly style

C F

She dusted my room and made my bed

G C

And she talked of days gone by

Am Em

She spoke of when she wooed the men

F C

A tear came to her eye

G Am G

And she said, "I used to be a country singer

Em Am

I could sing a mean Patsy Cline___

F Em Dm

My husband he could yodel like Wilf Carter
