Hank Wrote That

I could sing about your cheating heart
How you left and tore my world apart
I could write about your loveless mansion on the hill
I could sing ‘Im so lonesome I could cry’
Sad enough to bring a tear to your eye
‘cause everybody knows Hank’s songs still live
D Em
So Im gonna have to find new words to tell you where I’m at
Bc EVERYBODY KNOWS THAT HANK WROTE THAT
C/G/D/G
Ive been drinking beer for too many nights
Smelling stale cigarettes under neon lights
Feeling sorry for myself since your gone
If I could I’d tell you how I’ve been
Since you’ve locked your heart and wont let me in…
But every melody I sing is like an old Hank song
C/G/D/G
So Im gonna have to find new words to tell you where I’m at
Bc EVERYBODY KNOWS THAT HANK WROTE THAT
BRIDGE-
C G
He’s always here keeping company with us fools
D G
While we’re drowning our sorrows on old barstools
And you’d think by now that I’d start to get wise
And realize I’ll never get out of this world alive
So Im gonna have to find new words to tell you where I’m at
Bc EVERYBODY KNOWS THAT HANK WROTE THAT
So Im gonna have to find new words to tell you where I’m at
Bc EVERYBODY KNOWS THAT HANK WROTE THAT
