D Dmaj7

It was an early morning barroom

D7 Gmaj7

And the place had just opened up

Em Em/D#

And a little man came in so fast

Em/D A7

And he started at his cups

D Dmaj7

And the broad who served the whiskey

D7 Gmaj7

She was a big old friendly girl

Em Em/D#

Who tried to fight her empty nights

Em/D A7

By smiling at the world

G A

And she said "Hey, bub, it's been a while

F#m B7

Since you've been around

Em A

Where the hell you been hiding

G D

And why you look so down

G A

Well, the little man sat there

G A D

Like he'd never heard a sound

Cm G

The waitress she gave out with a cough

Bb F Em A

And acting not the least put off she spoke once again

D G

She said "I don't want to bother you

Em/G Em-Em/D#-Em/D

Consider it's understood

A/C# Em - Em/D# -Em/D

I know I'm not no beauty queen

A/C# Em A7sus4 D

But I sure can listen good
