    First time I seen my true Iove,
    C                     G
    he was walkin' by my door,
         C                   F
    the last time l saw his false 
hearted smile,
             G                
    he was dead on his coolin' 
  C
board.

        C                          
It's a-hard and it's hard, ain't it
  F
 hard,
    C                            G
to love one that never did love you?
        C                          
It's a-hard, and it's hard, ain't 
   F
it hard, great God,

    G             G7             C
to love one that never will be true?

     C                        F
    There is a house in this town,
     C                             
    that's where my true love lays 
 G
around.
        C                       F
    He takes other women right down 
on his knee,
        G                          
    he tells them a little tale he 
           C
won't tell me.

     C                      
    Don't go to drinkin' and 
  F
gamblin',
           C                       
    don't go there your sorrows to 
 G
drown.
          C                    
    This hard-liquor place is a 
  F
low-down disgrace,
          G                        
    it's the meanest damn place in 
      C
this town.

            C                      
    It was late last night, when my
  F
 true love come in,
     C                         
    rapped, and knocked upon my 
  G
door.
    C                 F
    I jumped out in a fit of 
jealousy,
           G                       
    that true love don't knock here
      C
 any more.
