Billy Joe Shaver - Fun While It Lasted Chords

[Intro]
G  B7  C  G

[Verse 1]
  G           B7           C           G
I met her one evenin' in a barroom downtown
G           A7         D7
She was the picture of truth
    G              B7
Her shoulders were sagged
        C              G
and her head was bowed down
     A7                    D7
Like me she was livin' the blues
 
[Verse 2]
         G         B7            C              G
When the music had ended and the crowd dwindled down
    G           A7          D7
And we were the last lonely two
   G              B7         C           G
We left with each other when nothing was left
    A7                     D7
And nothing left better to do
 
[Chorus]
           G            B7            C           G
And it was fun while it lasted but it didn't last long
G         A7                          D7
Before we knew it, the thrill was all gone
       G             B7          C             G
And we both wound up singin' the same lonesome song
       G                           D7          G
It was fun while it lasted, but it didn't last long
 
[Instrumental]

[Verse 3]
G       B7        C         G
I had a woman and she had a man
G         A7           D7
Before we both lost it all
     G            B7              C              G
When I thought of her that's when she thought of him
    A7                       D7
And I never could stand that thought
 
[Chorus]
       G            B7            C           G
It was fun while it lasted but it didn't last long
G          A7                        D7
Before the mornin' I'd packed up and gone
       G            B7          C             G
And we said goodbye singin' the same worn out song
       G                           D7          G
It was fun while it lasted, but it didn't last long
