[Verse 1]
I've been the one who has been frightened
And almost borne away
By the very thoughts that I feared yesterday
And it must be dust or smoke that's in my eyes
[Verse 2]
How can I cry about something from someone I won't see?
Oh, my friends all say she had her chance
Let's go shoot some pool
Ya know a fool is just a fool
[Bridge]
And I've tried everything that whiskey cures
But the pain endures
[Verse 3]
And now I'm feeling that pain
I put my pride in my pocket
That's how I'll spend my loneliest days
And it must be dust or smoke that's in my eyes
[Slide Guitar Solo]
[Bridge]
Don't know what to do
Hold the lamp above the rafters
These smoke-filled rooms will not replace her
