IF A JUKEBOX TOOK TEARDROPS Danni Leigh
CHORUS:
C G
If a jukebox took teardrops and the whiskey was free
(G) C
And that old car in the parking lot drove home automat-ically
(C) G
If every night 'neath the honky tonk light Would stop those mem-ories
F C G C
Wouldn't it be a wonderful world for somebody just like me
F C
How long can a girl keep going Like every day is the last
F G
I've paid off rent and the government Maybe I can pay off the past
Awwwwww go to chorus, lead
F C
Wouldn't I be on easy street living this life of mine
F
I could keep right on til the hurts all gone
G
And it wouldn't cost me a dime
Go to chorus, ending
ENDING:
F C G C
If the jukebox took teardrops and the whiskey was free
