    First time I seen my true Iove,
    C                     G
    he was walkin' by my door,
         C                   F
    the last time l saw his false hearted smile,
             G                  C
    he was dead on his coolin' board.
        C                            F
It's a-hard and it's hard, ain't it hard,
    C                            G
to love one that never did love you?
        C                             F
It's a-hard, and it's hard, ain't it hard, great God,
    G             G7             C
to love one that never will be true?
     C                        F
    There is a house in this town,
     C                              G
    that's where my true love lays around.
        C                       F
    He takes other women right down on his knee,
        G                                     C
    he tells them a little tale he won't tell me.
     C                        F
    Don't go to drinkin' and gamblin',
           C                        G
    don't go there your sorrows to drown.
          C                      F
    This hard-liquor place is a low-down disgrace,
          G                              C
    it's the meanest damn place in this town.
            C                        F
    It was late last night, when my true love come in,
     C                           G
    rapped, and knocked upon my door.
    C                 F
    I jumped out in a fit of jealousy,
           G                             C
    that true love don't knock here any more.
