There's the Door
By George Jones
 
C
I wandered in around midnight
 
Like I've done so many times
        F
She was sitting at the table
           G7              C
There were no tears in her eyes
 
 
It seemed so much unlike her
 
To be so much at ease
    F
She took a sip of coffee
    G7             C
And softly said to me
 
            F
There's the mantle where
                    C
We keep our wedding picture
            G7
There's the bedroom where
                      C
We make both love and war
 
                F
And there's the ring that keeps
                     C
On slipping off your finger
           D7                        G7
There's no reason we should go on anymore
                C
And there's the door
 
 
So I'm back here on this bar stool
 
My whole world gone to hell
           F
Behind the bottles there's a mirror
        G7           C
Where a fool can see himself
 
 
If I was the man I should be
 
And not the one I am
           F
I would go back there this minute
    G7               C
And beg for one more chance
 
            F
There's the jukebox
                         C
Where I wasted all those quarters
             G7
Oh there's a lady trying to
                  C
Get me out on the floor
 
              F
And there's a chance the one I love
            C
Would still forgive me
       D7                         G7
It's a step that I just never took before
            C
There's the door
