G  Em D G  Em D G  Em D G  Em D G

Verse 1:
             Em     D   G
The bar is open, but the seat ain't taken
         Em  D   G
It looks a little godforsaken
         Em    D   C     G
Kinda quiet since he ain't been around

Verse 2:
             Em   D   G
He used to throw around a lot of money
         Em    D   G
And everything he said was funny
              Em     D    G   Em D G
And we'll be laughing when Jones gets back to town


Verse 3:
            Em    D     G
I bet he's got a lot of things to bring us
       Em    D    G
Got a lot of songs to sing us
               Em   D   C     G
Bet they're saying, he's the biggest thing around


Verse 4:
             Em   D   G
So, take a beater to the old red carpet
              Em   D    G
Clear the decks and we can all get started
            Em     D    G    F
We'll have a party when Jones gets back to town


Chorus:
          C        G           F
Ever since he went away, we've been staring at our beer
        C          A      D   G
Just wondering why things ain't the same around here


Verse 5:
           Em   D    G
Bet he's gonna have a tale to tell us
          Em    D    G
Better hurry up and get here fellas
            Em     D    G
It's gonna happen when Jones gets back to town

Chorus:
          C        G           F
Ever since he went away, we've been staring at our beer
        C          A      D    G
Just wondering why things ain't the same around here___


Verse 6:
               Em    D     G
But you can talk about your 'Hey, big spenders'
            Em    D    G
You can talk about the Great Pretenders
             Em   D    C     G
Me, I'm talking 'bout the boy who wears a crown


Verse 7:
                 Em   D    G
He'll set 'em up and there'll be no last orders
          Em    D    G
We'll be waking up across the border
           Em     D    C    G
It won't matter, when Jones gets back to town
           Em     D    G
It won't matter, when Jones gets back to town
          Em     D    G
(Won't matter, when Jones gets back to town)
           Em     D    G
It won't matter, when Jones gets back to town
          Em     D    G
(Won't matter, when Jones gets back to town)
