INTRO:
B
Don't go too far with the girl at the bar..
ABE
she'll only bring you miser-y.
#1.
EAE
A bottle on the table empty glass in trembling
hand.
B
Through tear dimmed eyes I watch her as she
AE
talks to another man.
AE
A picture of true loveliness this girl I used
to know.
BA
But then I found she slipped around and I had
E
to let her go.
#2.
EA
Now, it's all right to have a drink or two with
E
my old used to be.
AE
Or hold her while the jukebox plays a tender melody.
B
But don't go too far with the girl at the bar..
ABE
she'll only bring you miser-y.
INTERLUDE: E A B E
#3.
EAE
Not too many months ago we planned our wedding vows.
BA
And I was the man who stood where you are standing
E
now.
AE
I believed the things she said, I gave my heart away.
BA
But they were lies and that is why I'm all alone
E
today.
#4.
AE
This bottle and this empty glass are all that's left
for me.
AE
She's found another heart to break and has forgotten
me.
BA
Yes, I went too far with the girl at the bar, heartaches
BE
now blur my memor-y.
OUTRO:
ABE
To her I'm just another used to be.
