Well it all seems so happy, but how can that be
        F              D                          A 
There a whole class of people just as lonesome as me
    G         D                        G  
You ask me to tell you how I can be so blue
    F            D                        A
But you'd be the same if the girl of your dreams
      G             D
Broke your heart in two
 
             G            F       D
So play me a Hank song to ease my pain
                        A                G         D  
'Cause it helps to know someone felt the same damn way
             G               F          D
Alone and forsaken - Brother what can I say
                   A         G     F         D
Yeah I feel like a Hank song since she went away
 
D                                    G
Well ol' K.G.'s my buddy - We go way back
       F                  D                              A 
To the times back in high school when I was too poor for Jack
         G             D                                  G
But even he knows that sometimes you can't help right the wrong
   F             D                                A
By getting stone blind - You need to sit down and pine
     G        D
To a Hank Sr. song
 
             G            F       D
So play me a Hank song to ease my pain
                        A                G         D  
'Cause it helps to know someone felt the same damn way
             G               F          D
Alone and forsaken - Brother what can I say
                   A         G     F         D
Yeah I feel like a Hank song since she went away

D                                             G
I hope that she's happy and I hope that she's free
           F           D                       A
I hope she finds her a man to treat her like a queen
         G         D                           G
And then up out of nowhere when she needs him around
    F           D                     A   
She wakes up to find she's ran out of time
         G          D
And he's ran out of town
 
                       G            F        D
I hope she needs her a Hank song to ease her pain
                          A                G         D
'Cause it'll help to know someone felt the same damn way
             G             F          D
Alone and forsaken - Honey what can I say
                       A          G
I hope you feel like a Hank song
F            D
One of these days
