Chords

[Intro] E [Verse 1]
E                                         A
You were cryin' in your pretzels when I met you

         B
You were washing

                           E
All the salt away from the dough

E
You were cryin' in your pretzels

                      A
And I'll never forget you

     B                         E    E7
But, baby, just why, I'll ever know
[Chorus]
A
Cryin' in your pretzels

               E
Cryin' in your beer

              B7
Cryin' on the table

                         E
That's where I found you, dear
[Verse 2] [Spoken:]
E
Yes, my sweet, I came into that bar

E
It was in Mississippi

                               A
There you were, sitting in the corner

A
Crying in your pretzels

              B
You'd already sogged up

B
A whole plate of potato chips

B
But the management didn't mind

B                          E
Because you were a regular customer

E
And I saw you sittin' there and I said

E                    A
"That person needs a friend

              B    E
And I'm gonna be a friend

E
Ain't nobody deserves to cry in his pretzels

    A
All night and wash away the salt."

A
So I kinda sided up to you and I said

B
"What can I do for you? How can I help you?

B                               E
What can I do to ease the pain?"
[Chorus]
E7             A
Well, you were cryin' in your pretzels

             E
Oh, you were cryin' in your beer

B7
Yes, that was the night I met you

         A      B        E
And I'll always hold you near
