Sad Songs and Waltzes
by Willie Nelson
I'm [A] writing a [E] song all a- [A] bout you
A [D] true song as real as my [A] tears
But you've [D] no need to fear it 'cause [A] no one will [D] hear it
[A] Sad songs and waltzes aren't [E] selling this [A] year
I'll tell all about how you cheated
I'd like for the whole world to hear
I'd like to get even with you 'cause you're leavin'
But songs and waltzes aren't selling this year
( Chorus
It's a [E] good thing that I'm not a [A] star
You [B] don't know how [E] lucky you [E7] are
Though my [A] record may say it, [D] no one will play it
[A] Sad songs and waltzes aren't [E] selling this [A] year. )
