Bubbles in My Beer

(Cindy Walker - Bob Wills - Tommy Duncan)



Tonight in a barroom, I'm sitting apart

From the laughter and cheer

The scenes of my life past before me

While watching the bubbles in my beer.



A vision of someone who loved me

Brings along silent tear to my eye

I know that my life's been a failure

Just watching the bubbles in my beer.



--- Instrumental ---



I'm seeing the road that I've travelled

A road paved with heartaches and tears

I'm seeing the past that I've wasted

While watching the bubbles in my beer.



I think of the heart that I've broken

And the golden chances that have passed me by

The dreams I've once made now are over

As empty as the bubbles in my beer...
