Capo 3rd fret

Standard (EADGBE)

In the corner of the bar there stands a jukebox..

with the best of country music, old and new.

You can hear your five selections for a quarter..

and somebody else's songs when yours are through.

I got good Kentucky whiskey on the counter..

and my friends around to help me ease the pain.

Til some button-pushing cowboy plays that love song..

and here I am just missing you again.

Chorus

Please, Mr., please, don't play B..Seventeen.

It was our song, it was his song, but it's o...ver.

Please, Mr., please, if you know what I mean..

I don't ever want to hear that song again.

If I had a dime for every time I held you.

Though you're far away, you've been so close to me.

I could swear I'd be the richest girl in Nashville..

maybe even in the state of Tennessee.

But I guess I'd better get myself together.

Cause when you left, you didn't leave too much behind.

Just a note that said 'I'm sorry,' by your picture..

and a song that's weighing heavy on my mind.

Chorus

Please, Mr., please, don't play B..Seventeen.

It was our song, it was his song, but it's o...ver.

Please, Mr., please, if you know what I mean..

I don't ever want to hear that song again.

A seventies smash from Kraziekhat.
