[Intro] G Em D G Em D G Em D G Em D G [Verse 1]
                         Em          D     G
The bar is open, but the seat ain't taken

                  Em    D      G
It looks a little godforsaken

                  Em       D     C         G
Kinda quiet since he ain't been around
[Verse 2]
                          Em     D      G
He used to throw around a lot of money

                  Em       D      G
And everything he said was funny

                           Em         D       G      Em  D  G
And we'll be laughing when Jones gets back to town
[Verse 3]
                        Em        D         G
I bet he's got a lot of things to bring us

             Em       D        G
Got a lot of songs to sing us

                             Em      D      C         G
Bet they're saying, he's the biggest thing around
[Verse 4]
                         Em      D      G
So, take a beater to the old red carpet

                           Em      D        G
Clear the decks and we can all get started

                        Em         D       G        F
We'll have a party when Jones gets back to town
[Chorus]
                    C               G                     F
Ever since he went away, we've been staring at our beer

               C                    A           D     G
Just wondering why things ain't the same around here
[Verse 5]
                      Em      D        G
Bet he's gonna have a tale to tell us

                    Em       D       G
Better hurry up and get here fellas

                       Em         D       G
It's gonna happen when Jones gets back to town
[Instrumental] Em D G Em D G Em D G Em D G F [Chorus]
                    C               G                     F
Ever since he went away, we've been staring at our beer

               C                    A           D        G
Just wondering why things ain't the same around here___
[Verse 6]
                             Em       D         G
But you can talk about your 'Hey, big spenders'

                       Em       D        G
You can talk about the Great Pretenders

                          Em      D       C         G
Me, I'm talking 'bout the boy who wears a crown
[Verse 7]
                                 Em      D       G
He'll set 'em up and there'll be no last orders

                    Em        D       G
We'll be waking up across the border

                      Em         D       C        G
It won't matter, when Jones gets back to town

                      Em         D       G
It won't matter, when Jones gets back to town 

                    Em         D       G
(Won't matter, when Jones gets back to town)

                      Em         D       G
It won't matter, when Jones gets back to town 

                    Em         D       G
(Won't matter, when Jones gets back to town)
