Tuning: EADGBE
Verse:
C majorC G+G
I could live my whole life
A minorAm E minorEm
Without a phone call
FF C majorC G+G
The likes of which I got today
C majorC G+G
It was only my wife
A minorAm E minorEm
Said hello then goodbye
FF G+G C majorC G+G
And told me she's going away
C majorC G+G
I didn't cry
A minorAm E minorEm
It was all cut and dry
FF C majorC G+G
I hung up before I realized
C majorC G+G
I turned up my stereo
A minorAm E minorEm
I walked to the window
FF G+G C majorC
And stared at the storm clouds outside
C majorC G+G A minorAm E minorEm
I play classical music when it rains
FF C majorC G+G
I play country when I am in pain
FF C majorC E7E7 A minorAm G+G FF
I won't play Beethoven, cause the mood's just not right
C majorC G+G C majorC G+G A minorAm E minorEm FF G+G C majorC G+G
I feel like Hank Williams tonight
C majorC G+G
There's no explanation
A minorAm E minorEm
Not even a reason
FF C majorC G+G
No talk of the good times we had
C majorC G+G
Was it Me was it her
A minorAm E minorEm
I don't know for sure
FF G+G C majorC G+G
That's why I'm feeling so bad
C majorC G+G A minorAm E minorEm
I play jazz when I am confused
FF C majorC G+G
I play country whenever I lose
FF C majorC
But Bird's saxophone
E7E7 A minorAm G+G FF
Just won't sound right
C majorC G+G C majorC G+G A minorAm E minorEm FF G+G C majorC G+G
I feel like Hank Williams tonight
C majorC G+G
Lately I've been thinkin
A minorAm E minorEm
I just might quit drinkin
FF C majorC G+G
Now I don't know all in all
C majorC G+G
I just might stay home
A minorAm E minorEm
And get drunk all alone
FF G+G C majorC G+G
And punch a few holes in the wall
C majorC G+G A minorAm E minorEm
When I'm real high I play rock and roll
FF C majorC G+G
I play country when I'm losin' control
FF C majorC
I don't play Chuck Berry
E7E7 A minorAm G+G FF
Quite as much as I'd like
C majorC G+G C majorC
But I sure feel like Hank Williams tonight
FF G+G C majorC
