The Jukebox Played Along 
Recorded by Gene Watson

G                                          D7
Well I got off work and headed for town to have a few
                                     G 
Determined I would drown the pain of losing you
                                        C
But this couple on the dance floor were dropping quarters in a slot
         D7                                G
And this heartless thing kept spinning old forget-me-nots

                               C
The jukebox played along to my misery in song
        D7                             G 
Just as if it felt the pain that I was going through
                                          C
Oh it wailed out Crying Time and You Were Always On My Mind
      D7                                       G 
I was singing the blues and the jukebox played along

                                         D7
Well the more I drank the more it became a mystery
                                             G 
How the men who wrote these songs wrote then just for me
                                            C
They must have hid out in my closet or they had to read my mail
       D7                                   G
Lord I must have heard at least ten dollars worth of Hell

                                  C
Oh the jukebox played along to my misery in song
        D7                             G
Just as if it felt the pain that I was going through
                                 C
It played I'm Born To Lose and I Can't Stop Loving You
      D7                                       G 
I was singing the blues and the jukebox played along

D7                           G
They played Watson and Jones Travis kept picking up bones
D7                          G
Somebody Laughed and I'm So Lonesome I Could Cry
D7                       G
There Goes My Everything they played Golden Rings
D7                           G
They played Haggard and Hank give me another drink
