Georges Bar

A                       F#m      
My brother and I used to go down 
            E
to George's Bar
A                   F#m          
we'd drink big O's until they 
               E
close down the place
A                   F#m    
we'd talk about our life long 
     E
ambitions
D                   E             
I still recall the smile upon his 
 A
face.

[Verse 2]
A                   F#m          
He took off for the bright lights
          E
 down in Austin
A                            F#m 
he said don't you know there 
             E
ain't no money here
A                  F#m           
he made a billion bucks just 
       E
selling computers
D                   E        
I still go down to George's and 
            A
drink my beer.

[Chorus]
E                           D    
Yeah, he's gone, he may be gone, 
               A
but I'm still here.
E                          D     
Well he's gone, he may be gone, 
              A
but I'm still here.

A                       F#m      
There was this curly headed girl 
            E
back in the seventh grade
A               F#m               
she didn't even know she caught my 
 E
eye
A               F#m           E
we dated for a while back in high 
school
D                   E             
I thought that one day she'd be my 
 A
wife.

[Verse 3]
A                       F#m 
The road took a turn somewhere 
                 E
around eighteen
A               F#m            E
she took off to find her own way
A                F#m            
fell in for some Nashville high 
E
roller
D                   E             
I know he gonna break her heart one 
 A
day.

[Chorus]
E                           D    
Yeah, she's gone, she may be 
               A
gone, but I'm still here.
E                          D     
Well she's gone, she may be gone,
              A
 but I'm still here.

[Verse 4]
A                       F#m      
I used to go to my grandpas house
            E
 every Sunday,
A               F#m          E
watch the dallas cowboys on TV,
A                F#m              
sit around sometimes he'd tell us 
 E
stories,
D                   E          A
about how simple life used to be.

[Verse 5]
A             F#m            
My grandpa died a year ago last 
      E
Sunday,
A                 F#m       
I thought to myself he was one 
            E
helluva' man,
A                   F#m   
and I know when the darkness 
            E
surrounds me,
D                   E          A
he reaches out and he takes my hand.

[Chorus]
E                           D    
Yeah, he's gone, he may be gone, 
               A
but I'm still here.
E                          D     
Well he's gone, he may be gone, 
              A
but I'm still here.
