[Verse 1]
This Cbar has been mGy home away froFm her
CUsed to be,G she was missiCng mGe
CNow she's moving Gin withF her best friend
And I'm theC only one whGo wants what used Cto bGe
CI'm here because Gtoday I lost Fit all
CI didn't want toG drink at home aCloneG
CI just can't bGelievFe all my hopes and dreams Care falling
Like aG row of doCminoGes
[Chorus 1]
I thought theC man behind theG bar
Had Fheard it all Gbefore
CMy story must havAme caught him by Gsurprise
Cause when heAm handed me mGy double
There werFe tears in his eCyes
You Fknow you're in troubCle
When theG bartender crieCs G F
[Verse 2]
He said, "CLast night you swore youG'd never drinFk again"
I saCid, "Next tiGme, I'm really goCnna tGry
So if sheC ever calls for mGe F
Oh, you canF finally tell heCr, "He ain't here"
AndG it won't beC a lGie
[Chorus 2]
I asked the mCan behind the Gbar
What he'dF been crying foGr
He said, "CThat bottle used to Ambe a friend of Gmine
Now I'Amve stopped drinking doubGles
But IF pour them all of thCe time
Son, youF know you're in Ctrouble
When thGe bartender criCes"
[Bridge]
FAs I saw my own Greflection starCing back at Amme, I Fknew
F G (pause)
Every single word he said was true
[Chorus 3]
(no chord) C G
Well, I told the man behind the bar
I thoughtF I'd seen it allG beforCe
Till I saw theAm sadness in hiGs eyes
That's whenAm I put down my dGouble
And Fsaid my last goCodbyes
'Cause you knoFw you're in troCuble
When the Gbartender crieAms
Oh, yoFu know you're in troCublGe
