Tom: G

G                            G7        C
I beg your pardon mister for intruding privacy

      G                                           D7
I was sitting on the barstool I couldn't help but see

       G                                      G7                C
By the way you've been drinking it must be an awful mood you're in

           G                                   D7             G
You're not drowning your heartache you're just teaching it to swim

 
G                                 G7                C
You wonder what came over you why did she treat you so

    G                                                  D7
You sit and drink in sorrow wishing all the hurt would go

      G                                        G7             C
Guess you've ask yourself a hundred times what did she see in him
 
           G                                   D7             G
You're not drowning your heartache you're just teaching it to swim

 
               D7                            G
Perhaps you're wondering how a stranger like me could understand

A7                                  D7
But I've got a feeling we're in the same boat my friend

     G                                   G7               C
Just like you I lost my darling she just walked away with him

           G                                   D7             G
You're not drowning your heartache you're just teaching it to swim

C          G                                   D7             G
You're not drowning your heartache you're just teaching it to swim
