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."

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...
