Drop-D Tuning - Capo 1
[Intro]
F G F D
[Verse]
D
Well it all seems so happy
G
But how can that be
F D
There a whole class of people
A
Just as lonesome as me
G D
You ask me to tell you
G
How I can be so blue
F D
But you'd be the same
A
If the girl of your dreams
G D
Broke your heart in two
[Chorus]
G
So play me a Hank song
F D
To ease my pain
A
'Cause it helps to know someone
G D
Felt the same damn way
G
Alone and forsaken
F D
Brother what can I say
A
Yeah I feel like a Hank song
G F D
Since she went away
[Verse]
D
Well ol' K.G.'s my buddy
G
We go way back
F D
To the times back in high school
A
When I was too poor for Jack
G D
But even he knows that sometimes
G
You can't help right the wrong
F D
By getting stone blind
A
You need to sit down and pine
G D
To a Hank Sr. song
[Chorus]
G
So play me a Hank song
F D
To ease my pain
A
'Cause it helps to know someone
G D
Felt the same damn way
G
Alone and forsaken
F D
Brother what can I say
A
Yeah I feel like a Hank song
G F D
Since she went away
[Instrumental]
G F D A A G D
G F D A A G D
[Verse]
D
I hope that she's happy
G
And I hope that she's free
F D
I hope she finds her a man
A
To treat her like a queen
G D
And then up out of nowhere
G
When she needs him around
F D
She wakes up to find
A
She's ran out of time
G D
And he's ran out of town
[Chorus]
G
I hope she needs her a Hank song
F D
To ease her pain
A
'Cause it'll help to know someone
G D
Felt the same damn way
G
Alone and forsaken
F D
Honey what can I say
A
I hope you feel like a Hank song
G F D
One of these days...
