G Bm C G [Verse]
G Bm Oh, I used to wish I was a hard line taker...and they'd say,
Bm "Six to one a half dozen'll break her,"
C G 'Till I fell in love with a young man who sang the blues
G Oh, bless my daddy, he warned me well
Bm He'd whisper in my ear and say, "Now look out, gal...
C G There's always a ne'er do well gonna call you the fool" [Chorus]
C G He said, "You'll never learn to fish on a borrowed line
C G You'll never learn to write if you're walkin' 'round cryin'
C G And it's a pity that your lover died young, but...
Cm G You'll never get tired of livin' alone." [Verse]
G So, now I dream of the lover that I don't know

Bm It's safer this way 'cuz I don't have to go...
C G Oh, and he won't come...so nobody goes away
G Sometimes I wish for the warmth of his hand
Bm Take a look in these eyes and understand
C G I'm just a little too old to be a-learnin' the rules of the game [Chorus]
C G He said, "You'll never learn to fish on a borrowed line
C G You'll never learn to write if you're walkin' 'round cryin'
C G And it's a pity that your lover died young, but...
Cm G You'll never get tired of livin' alone." [Solo/Break]
G Bm C G
G Bm C G [Verse]
G Oh, maybe I could take him to Mexico
Bm We'd kick our heels in the warm cloudy gulf
C He'd sing a song about the weather in the Poconos;
G This lover that I don't know
G Then two hearts would pound 'stead of one in the night
Bm I'd learn to fish with my own line
C G Catch that dream and hope that line would hold [Chorus]
C G He said, "You'll never learn to fish on a borrowed line
C G You'll never learn to write if you're walkin' 'round cryin'
C G And it's a pity that your lover died young, but...
Cm G You'll never get tired of livin' alone."
Cm G No, I never get tired of livin' alone
Cm G Sometimes my feet get cold...when I'm livin' alone... [Otro]
