There's a honky tonk in this town
     Bb               F
They call the loser's lounge
                          C                 F   C
And I guess I'm a charter member, you could say
      F
Since love has turned me down
           Bb           F
Nothing to do but hang around
                      C                 F
And listen to all the fools who come to say

[Chorus]
     Bb                               F
That life is full of heartaches for a poor boy
                                G             C7
'Cause a bank roll can turn his woman's head around
         F                          Bb              F
Ain't no use to try and run away or move to another town
                           C                      F
'Cause anywhere a poor boy goes there's a loser's lounge

Had a real good friend named Sam
        Bb                 F
Said he just couldn't understand
                     C                  F    C
Why in the world his sweet love let him down
      F
But a rich man caught her eye
           Bb                  F
He had the money for things to buy
                               C                   F
Now there's a brand new member down at the loser's lounge

[Chorus]
Bb                               F
Life is full of heartaches for a poor boy
                                G             C7
'Cause a bank roll can turn his woman's head around
         F                          Bb              F
Ain't no use to try and run away or move to another town
                           C                      F
'Cause anywhere a poor boy goes there's a loser's lounge

[Outro]
Bb F
Oh yeah
