George Jones – The Old Man No One Loves (Guitar)

     A                A7               D
In a bar room down in Georgia sits an old man

    B                                   E
His whiskers grey and two or three days old

        A                  A7         D
You can tell he's dreaming up another story

                     E          A
Just in case there's one hasn't told

          A             A7            D
There's a story that he tells about a woman

    B                            E
And always says she was a beauty queen

       A               A7               D
But he said the angels came for her one morning

                        E          A
After that he just gave up on everything

    A              A7                 D
The old man no one loves is what they call him

    B                  B7              E   E7
The tales he tells are taller than the sky

    A              A7                    D
The old man no one loves could tell some big ones

                                  E                 A
And everybody laughs and said you know that old man lies

            A             A7              D
There's the one he always tells about his children

    B                       E
His son's a doctor up in Ohio

    A               A7          D
His daughter owns a bank in California

                  E           A
But he don't ever see them anymore

    A              A7                 D
The old man no one loves is what they call him

    B                  B7              E   E7
The tales he tells are taller than the sky

    A              A7                    D
The old man no one loves could tell some big ones

                                  E                 A
And everybody laughs and said you know that old man lies

A              A7                  D
  But you know   that old man that no one loves, he died this morning

B                    B7                   E
  The whole town was shocked by all those big long limousines

A             A7                                D
  And all his children gathered 'round and they wept beside him

                     E               A
And one cried out my daddy's gone to join his beauty queen

    A              A7                 D
The old man no one loves is what they call him

    B                  B7              E   E7
The tales he tells are taller than the sky

    A              A7                    D
The old man no one loves could tell some big ones

                                  E                 A
And everybody laughs and said you know that old man lies

    A              A7                 D
The old man no one loves is what they call him

    B                  B7              E   E7
The tales he tells are taller than the sky...
