Fun While It Lasted

  G           B7           C           G 
I met her one evenin' in a barroom downtown
G           A7         D
She was the picture of truth
    G              B7           C              G 
Her shoulders were saggin', her head was bowed down
     A7                    D
Like me she was livin' the blues

When the music had ended and the crowd dwindled down
And we were the last lonely two
We left with each other when nothin' was left
And nothin' left better to do


Chorus:
           G            B7            C           G
And it was fun while it lasted but it didn't last long
G         A7                         D  
Before we knew it the thrill was all gone
       G             B7          C             G 
And we both wound up singin' the same lonesome song
       G                           D           G
It was fun while it lasted, but it didn't last long


I had a woman and she had a man
Before we both lost it all
When I thought of her that's when she thought of him
And I never could stand that thought

Chorus
