Would You Be Satisfied
recorded by Jean Shepard

G
I'm just someone who's all alone
C G
In a cold and empty home
You're far away and yet
D7
You're still here by my side
G
You're dreaming now of bygone years
C G
Of honky tonks and bars and beers
If you were free and could go back there
D7 G
Would you be satisfied
D7
Cause on the day we were wed
G
You vowed to face the road ahead
A7
But now you're living in the past
D7
That should have died
G
Now if your life you could renew
C G
Do the things you used to do
But didn't have my love to turn to
D7 G
Would you be satisfied
Each evening when the sun goes down
C G
You yearn to go out on the town
I can see it in the gaze
D7
You try to hide
G
Those honky tonking memories
C G
Are haunting you constantly
My dear if they should steal you from me
D7 G
Would you be satisfied
D7
You know that I have never asked
G
About your dark and sinful past
A7
I've always loved you
D7
And I stayed right by your side
G
But now if fate should take your hand
C G
And lead you down that road again
To all those honky tonks you danced in
D7 G
Would you be satisfied
