C

The night club was burning

D G

From the torch singer's song

C G D

And the sweat was flooding her eyes

G

The catwalk squeaked

C G

Neath the bartender's feet

G D G

And the smoke was too heavy to rise

C G

She sang of the love that I left her

C G D

And of the woman that she'll never be

G C

Made me feel like the buck and a quarter

D G C

That I paid em to listen and see

D G CD

I paid em to listen and see

G C

I was born down in Kansas

D G

'Neath the October sky

C G D

Work the day shift from seven to three

G C G

And the only relief that I receive

G D G

Is nearer my God to Thee

C G

She constantly throws me off timing

C G D

Leaves me standing both naked and bare

G C

Makes me feel like the Sunday funnies

D G C

After everything's gone off the air
