[Intro]
G B7 C G
G D7 G G

[Verse 1]
G B7 C G
I met her one evenin' in a barroom downtown
G A7 D7
She was the picture of truth
G B7
Her shoulders were sagged
C G
and her head was bowed down
A7 D7
Like me she was livin' the blues

[Verse 2]
G B7 C G
When the music had ended and the crowd dwindled down
G A7 D7
And we were the last lonely two
G B7 C G
We left with each other when nothing was left
A7 D7
And nothing left better to do

[Chorus]
G B7 C G
And it was fun while it lasted but it didn't last long
G A7 D7
Before we knew it, the thrill was all gone
G B7 C G
And we both wound up singin' the same lonesome song
G D7 G
It was fun while it lasted, but it didn't last long

[Instrumental]
G B7 C G
G D7 G G

[Verse 3]
G B7 C G
I had a woman and she had a man
G A7 D7
Before we both lost it all
G B7 C G
When I thought of her that's when she thought of him
A7 D7
And I never could stand that thought

[Chorus]
G B7 C G
It was fun while it lasted but it didn't last long
G A7 D7
Before the mornin' I'd packed up and gone
G B7 C G
And we said goodbye singin' the same worn out song
G D7 G
It was fun while it lasted, but it didn't last long

[Instrumental]
