{t:Five Gallon Tear}
{st:Aaron Tippin}
{comment:Intro:}
[F] [F] [F] [F]
[F] We were all drinking at [Bb] Marge's one [F] night
When an old cowboy [C] came through the [F] door
He took[F] a few shaky steps, then he [Bb] started to [F] moan
And he keeled over [C] right on the fl[F]oor
Doc came on over, took his [Bb] stethoscope [F] out
He listened and he [C] looked in his [F] eyes
He [F]said, "boys, stick around I just [Bb] might need your [F] help
I'm afraid this will [C] be a long [F] night"
Cause, there's a [Bb] five gallon tear, a [F] five gallon tear
Lodged in this [C] poor old boy's [F] heart
By the [Bb] look in his eyes he [F] ain't cried in [Bb] years
And he's re[F]taining a [C] five gallon [F] tear
Doc [F#] wrote a prescription to in[B]duce him to [F#] cry
It was whiskey and [C#] sad country [F#] songs
We pr[F#]opped him up in a booth
Poured a [B] drink down his [F#] throat
Then we turned that old [C#] Wurlitzer [F#] on
Well h[F#]e spluttered and he coughed
And he [B] hung down his [F#] head
As those lonely songs [C#] worked on his [F#] heart
When the memories started coming six [B] minutes a[F#]part
We laid him face [C#]up on the [F#] bar
Until a fi[B]ve gallon tear, a f[F#]ive gallon tear
Slowly welled [C#] up in his [F#] eyes
[B] We all yelled "push" and we [F#] all gave a c[B]heer
When [F#] he cried that [C#] five gallon [F#] tear
{comment:Solo:}
[B][F#][C#][F#]
That [D#m] jar by the [C#] door, don't hold [B] pig feet no [F#] more
The [D#m] contents are [C#] sparkling [B] clear
That [D#m] liquid with[C#]in is not [B] moonshine or [F#] gin
It's a re[B]minder to everyone [C#] here
It's a [B] five gallon tear, a [F#] five gallon tear
Let this be a [C#] lesson to [F#] you
Keep your s[B]orrow inside for t[F#]oo many y[B]ears
And you[F#]'ll cry that five[C#] gallon tear[F#] [B]
Buddy [F#] you'll cr[C#]y [B] [C#]
Buddy, [F#] you'll cry a [C#] five gallon [F#] tear.........
Yeah f[B]ive gallon tear, fi[F#]ve gallon tear
Let t[F#]his be a le[C#]sson to y[F#]ou
Keep your s[B]orrow inside for [F#]too many ye[B]ars
And y[F#]ou'll cry that fi[C#]ve gallon te[F#]ar
I said a [B]five gallon tear, a fi[F#]ve gallon tear
Let [F#]this be a l[C#]esson to y[F#]ou
Keep your s[B]orrow inside for t[F#]oo many ye[B]ars
And y[F#]ou'll cry that fi[C#]ve gallon t[F#]ear
Yeah [B]five gallon tear, a fi[F#]ve gallon tear
Let t[F#]his be a le[C#]sson to y[F#]ou
Keep your s[B]orrow inside for t[F#]oo many ye[B]ars
And y[F#]ou'll cry that f[C#]ive gallon t[F#]ear
