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


Instrumental:
Em  D  G    Em  D  G    Em  D  G    Em  D  G     F


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)
