Play Me A Hank Song - Tyler Childers

Drop-D Tuning - Capo 1

[Intro]

F G F D

[Verse]

Well it all seems so happy

But how can that be

F D

There a whole class of people

Just as lonesome as me

G D

You ask me to tell you

How I can be so blue

F D

But you'd be the same

If the girl of your dreams

G D

Broke your heart in two

[Chorus]

So play me a Hank song

F D

To ease my pain

'Cause it helps to know someone

G D

Felt the same damn way

Alone and forsaken

F D

Brother what can I say

Yeah I feel like a Hank song

G F D

Since she went away

[Verse]

Well ol' K.G.'s my buddy

We go way back

F D

To the times back in high school

When I was too poor for Jack

G D

But even he knows that sometimes

You can't help right the wrong

F D

By getting stone blind

You need to sit down and pine

G D

To a Hank Sr. song

[Chorus]

So play me a Hank song

F D

To ease my pain

'Cause it helps to know someone

G D

Felt the same damn way

Alone and forsaken

F D

Brother what can I say

Yeah I feel like a Hank song

G F D

Since she went away

[Instrumental]

G F D A A G D

[Verse]

I hope that she's happy

And I hope that she's free

F D

I hope she finds her a man

To treat her like a queen

G D

And then up out of nowhere

When she needs him around

F D

She wakes up to find

She's ran out of time

G D

And he's ran out of town

[Chorus]

I hope she needs her a Hank song

F D

To ease her pain

'Cause it'll help to know someone

G D

Felt the same damn way

Alone and forsaken

F D

Honey what can I say

I hope you feel like a Hank song

G F D
