Hank Thompson - Bubbles In My Beer lyrics

Tonight in a bar alone I'm sitting

Apart from the laughter and the cheer

While scenes from the past rise before me

I'm watching the bubbles in my beer

A vision of someone who loves me

Brings along solty tears to my eyes

So I know that my life's been a failure

Just watching the bubbles in my beer

[ steel - fiddle ]

I'm seeing the road that I've travelled

A road paved with heartaches and tears

And I'm seeing the past that I've wasted

While watching the bubbles in my beer

As I think of the heart that I've broken

And of the golden chances that have passed me by

And the dreams that I had now are empty

As empty as the bubbles in my beer
