G C
I parked my car round back got the shades pulled down
D7 G
I told everybody includin' my momma I was leaving town
D7 G C
But I've been right here since you've been gone
D7 G
Belly up at the bottom of a bottle listening to George Jones
[Chorus]
C
And just playin' possum layin' low
D7
I've got hundred watts of hurtin'
C D7
Coming through the speakers of my stereo
G C
Don't want to see nobody nowhere I want to go
A7 G D7 G
Just playin' possum and laying low
[Verse 2]
D7 G C
I'm gonna hide my heart and be a love recluse
D7 G
Oh I could cry on my best friend's shoulder but there ain't no use
D7 G C
I need an expert on the pain I'm going through
D7 G
So I'll keep George on the old turntable till I'm over you
[Chorus]
C
And just playin' possum layin' low
D7
I've got hundred watts of hurtin'
C D7
Coming through the speakers of my stereo
G C
Don't want to see nobody nowhere I want to go
A7 G D7 G
Just playin' possum and laying low
[Outro]
C G D7 G
Tell 'em Jones he's a playin' possum and he's a layin' low
