Ive Lost The Only Love I Knew
Written by don helms and hank williams
Recorded by ray price feb. 8, 1952, with the drifting cowboys
(d) you ask me why my (d7) hearts so (g) sad,
And (d) why the teardrops fill my (a7) eyes,
A (d) heart cant sing thats (d7) filled with (g) pain,
How (d) can it (a7) laugh when it (d) cries. (d7)
First chorus
I (g) saw my dreams all fade and (d) die,
Like castles in the (a7) blue,
Each (d) dawn will bring more (d7) tears and (g) pain,
Ive (d) lost the (a7) only love i (d) knew.
Oh, life for me is use - less now,
It seems so empty and blue,
Theres no more use to try a - gain,
I fail in everything I do.
Second chorus
Its hard to know youll never have,
The one you love so true,
While the worlds asleep, Ill lay and cry,
Ive lost the only love I knew.

Theres No Room In My Heart For The Blue
Key: c
(c)theres no room in my (c7)heart for the (f)blues
Love is (g7)satisfied to either win or (c)lose
Darlin, if our pathways part, (c7)let there (f)be no broken hearts
Theres no (g7)room in my heart for the (c)blues
Theres no room in my life for a sigh
Well be strong enough to face our last goodbye
Darlin, if our romance ends, let us part the best of friends
Theres no room in my heart for the blues
Theres no room in my memory for tears
Well let bygones be forgotten souvenirs
If your hungry heart forgets, let there be no sad regrets
Theres no room in my heart for the blues
Theres no room in my life for a sigh
Well be strong enough to face our last goodbye
Darlin if our romance ends let us be the best of friends
Theres no room in my heart for the blues

They Ll Never Take Her Love From Me
If today the sun should set on all my hopes and cares
There is one smiling face the gods would see
cus shell walk along beside me up the golden stairs
No, theyll never never take her love from me.
What a fool I was to go and break the trust she gave
And see her love turn into sympathy
Its the one regret Ill carry with me to my grave
Oh, theyll never ever take her love from me.
(bridge chords for solos)
Im so thankful for each golden hour of happiness
That we shared together in the used to be
Someone elses arms may hold her now in fond caress
But theyll never never take her love from me.
I thought Id make her happy if I stepped aside
But I knew her love would never set me free
And even on the morning she became anothers bride
I said theyll never never take her love from me.

(I Heard That) Lonesome Whistle
I was ridin' Number Nine,
Headin' south from Caroline.
I heard that lonesome whistle blow.
Got in trouble, had to roam,
Left my gal an' left my home.
I heard that lonesome whistle blow.
Just a kid, actin' smart,
I went and broke my darling's heart,
I guess I was too young to know.
They took me off the Georgia Main,
Locked me to a ball and chain.
I heard that lonesome whistle blow.
All alone I bear the shame,
I'm a number, not a name.
I heard that lonesome whistle blow.
All I do is set [sic] an' cry
When the evenin' train goes by.
I heard that lonesome whistle blow.
I'll be locked here in this cell
Till my body's just a shell

In the [d] great book of john - youre [g] warned of the [d] day
When youll be laid - beneath the cold [a7] clay
The [g] angel of [d] death - will [g] come from the [d] sky
And claim your poor soul - when the [a7] time comes to [d] die.

When the angel of death - comes [g] down after [d] you
Can you smile and say - that you have been [a7] true
Can you [g] truthfully [d] say - with [g] your dying [d] breath
That youre ready to meet - the [a7] angel of [d] death.
When the [d] lights all grow dim - and the [g] dark shadows [d] creep
And then your loved ones - are gathered to [a7] weep
Can you [g] face them and [d] say - with [g] your dying [d] breath
That youre ready to meet - the [a7] angel of [d] death.
Chorus
