Weary Blues

Words and music by hank williams, sr.
Capo: 3rd fret key: f play: d
The [d] snow falls [g] 'round my [d] window
But [g] it can't chill my [d] heart
God [g] knows it died the [d] day you left
My dream world [a7] fell a-[d] part.
Chorus
Weary [d] blu-ue-ue [g] ues from [d] waitin'
Lord, i've been [e7] waitin' too [a7] long
These [d] blues have [g] got me [d] cryin'
Oh, sweet ma-a-ma, [a7] please come [d] home.
Thru tears i watch young lovers
As they go strollin' by
Oh, all the things that might have been
God forgive me if i cry.
Chorus

Why Should I Cry

(c)why should I cry, I (g7)never done you wrong
I kept my vows you left me all a(c)lone
You told me you loved me, you (f)told me a lie
(c)why should I pay, tell me (g7)why should I (c)cry
You knew I worshipped you, right from the start
I gave you my love, never thought that wed part
You didnt care enough, to even say goodbye
Why should I pay, tell me why should I cry
You know I miss you, now that youre gone
Life can be sad when youre livin all alone
But darlin Ill forget you, your memory will die
Why should I pay, tell me why should I cry

Sometimes Late At Night

(e) sometimes late at night,
When our (a) friends are fast a- (e) sleep,
You say youd like to take a stroll with (b7) me,
Tho (e) we are wed to others, and (a) it may not be (e) right,
I have (a) longed to hold you (e) in my arms,
(b7) sometimes late at (e) night.
Chorus:
Ive (a) cried myself to sleep,
A (e) thousand times or more,
But when I dream of you, my heart is (b7) light,
No (e) matter what our friends may (e7) say,
And (a) it may not be (e) right,
I (a) love you so, you (e) know Ill go,
(b7) sometimes late at (e) night.
Repeat chorus.

A Mansion On The Hill

Tonight down here in the valley
Im lonesome and o how I feel
As I sit here alone in my cabin
I can see your mansion on the hill
Do you recall when we parted
The story to me you revealed
You said you could live without loving
In your loveless mansion on the hill
Ive waited all through the years love
To give you a heart true and real
Cause I know youre living in sorrow
In your loveless mansion on the hill
The light shine bright from yer window
The trees stand so silent and still
I know youre alone with your pride dear
In your loveless mansion on the hill

I Cant Escape From You

Recorded by hank williams, sr.
Words and music by hank williams, sr.
Ive [c] tried and tried to run and hide
To find a [c7] life thats [g7] new
But [c] where I go, I [f] always [c] know
I cant es-[g7] cape from [c] you.
A jug of wine to numb my mind
But what good does it do
The jug runs dry and still I cry
I cant escape from you.
These wasted tears are souvenirs
Of a love I thought was true
Your memory is chained to me
I cant escape from you.
There is no end, I cant pretend
That dreams will soon come true
A slave too long to a heart of stone
I cant escape from you.

Dear Brother

Recorded by hank williams, sr. (with audrey williams)
Words and music by hank williams, sr.
[c] dear brother, mama left us this morning
Deaths [g7] angels took her a-[c] way
Shes gone to meet daddy up there in heaven
But [g7] well meet again some [c] day. [c7]
She [f] left this world with a [c] smile on her face
Whispring the saviours [g7] name
[c] dear brother, mama left us this morning
For the [g7] city where is no [c] pain.
As I stood by her bedside, those last few moments
I lived my childhood again
I thought of you brother and of the old homestead
And my tears they fell like rain.

We Live In Two Different Worlds

(e)we live in two different (a) worlds, dear
(e)thats why were so far a(b7)part
(e)you made your world out of (a) vows that are broken
(e)i built a (b7)world in my (e) heart
Everyone here tried to warn me
You were just playing a game
I told them all we were meant for each other
I thought our worlds were the same
If you stay over in your world
Oh, how my poor heart will pine
Darling, someday when your memories wander
Wont you come over in mine
We live in two different worlds, dear
My world is honest and true
Sweetheart, remember when your world gets lonesome
Ill still be waiting for you

Lost Highway

Im a rollin stone all alone and lost
For a life of sin I have paid the cost
When I pass by all the people say
Just another guy on the lost highway
Just a deck of cards and a jug of wine
And a womans lies makes a life like mine
O the day we met, I went astray
I started rolling down that lost highway
I was just a lad, nearly 22
Neither good nor bad, just a kid like you
And now Im lost, too late to pray
Lord I take a cost, o the lost highway
Now boys dont start to ramblin round
On this road of sin are you sorrow bound
Take my advice or youll curse the day
You started rollin down that lost highway

You Broke Your Own Heart

YOU BROKE YOUR OWN HEART
WRITERS HANK WILLIAMS, HANK WILLIAMS JR.
You're letter says you're unhappy we're many miles apart
It's a little late to ask for pity,
Remember you broke your own heart
You walked out on the heart that loved you, has no pity from the start
You cheated and lied and now you're gonna cry,
Remember you broke your own heart
A heart can stand so much sorrow and then it bends and breaks
And a love that is honest and true can turn to bitter hate
Now that you're gone and lonely, and your dreams have fallen apart
Think of the one that once loved you,
Remember you broke your own heart
