From hank williams: the singles collection

[d] what's the use to deny we've been [g] living a [d] lie

That we should have admitted be[a]fore

We were [d] just victims of a [g] half-hearted [d] love

So why should we [a] try any[d]more



The vows that we make are [g] only to [d] break

We drift like a wave from the [a] shore

The [d] kisses we steal we [g] know are not [d] real

So why should we [a] try any[d]more



The dreams that we knew can [g] never come [d] true

They're gone to return no [a] more

[d] false love like ours [g] fades with the [d] flowers

So why should we [a] try any[d]more



Our story's so old a[g]gain has been [d] told

On the past let's close the [a] door

And [d] smile don't regret but [g] live and [d] forget

There's no use to [a] try any[d]more
