Bubbles in My Beer

(Cindy Walker - Bob Wills - Tommy Duncan)



Tonight in a bar alone I'm sitting

Apart from the laughter and the cheers

While scenes from the past, rise before me

Just watchin' the bubbles in my beer.



A vision of someone who loved me

Brings alone silent tear to my eye

Oh! I know that my life's been a failure

Just watchin' the bubbles in my beer.



--- Instrumental ---



I'm seeing the road that I've traveled

A road paved with hearthaches and tears

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

While watchin' the bubbles in my beer.



As I think of the heart that I've broken

And the chances I know have passed me by

And the dreams that I've made, now are empty

As empty as the bubbles in my beer...
