Please Mr Please

D
In the corner of the bar there 
stands a jukebox..
with the best of country music, old 
    Em A
and new.
                       A7        
You can hear your five selections 
       A
for a quarter..
                    A7             
and somebody else's songs when 
      D
yours are through.
D
I got good Kentucky whiskey on the 
counter..
                         D7     
and my friends around to help me 
          G
ease the pain.
Til some button-pushing cowboy plays
      D
 that love song..
    Em             A         
and here I am just missing you 
  D
again.

CHORUS:
D                             
Please, Mr., please, don't play 
     Em   A
B..Seventeen.
Continues after the ad
       Em               A         
It was our song, it was his song, 
         G   D
but it's o...ver.
D                           Em   
Please, Mr., please, if you know 
       A
what I mean..
        Em           A            
I don't ever want to hear that 
  D
song again.

D
If I had a dime for every time I 
held you.
Though you're far away, you've been 
            Em A
so close to me.
                         A7     
I could swear I'd be the richest 
         A
girl in Nashville..
                  A7      
maybe even in the state of 
       D
Tennessee.
D
But I guess I'd better get myself 
together.
Cause when you left, you didn't 
          D7     G
leave too much behind.
G                                 
Just a note that said 'I'm sorry,'
         D
 by your picture..
      Em                   A      
and a song that's weighing heavy 
     D
on my mind.

CHORUS:
D                             
Please, Mr., please, don't play 
     Em   A
B..Seventeen.
       Em               A         
It was our song, it was his song, 
         G   D
but it's o...ver.
D                           Em   
Please, Mr., please, if you know 
       A
what I mean..
        Em           A            
I don't ever want to hear that 
  D
song again.
