Fun While It Lasted
By Billy Joe Shaver

I [G]met her one [B7]evenin' in a [C]barroom down[G]town
[G]She was the [A7]picture of [D]truth
Her [G]shoulders were [B7]saggin', her [C]head was bowed [G]down
Like [A7]me she was livin' the [D]blues
When the music had ended and the crowd dwindled down
And we were the last lonely two
We left with each other when nothin' was left
And nothin' left better to do
Chorus:
And it was [G]fun while it [B7]lasted but it [C]didn't last [G]long
[G]Before we [A7]knew it the thrill was all [D]gone
And we [G]both wound up [B7]singin' the [C]same lonesome [G]song
It was [G]fun while it lasted, but it [D]didn't last [G]long
I had a woman and she had a man
Before we both lost it all
When I thought of her that's when she thought of him
And I never could stand that thought
Chorus
